Herb-Poached Eggs with Lemony Hollandaise
Savor a luxurious twist on a classic dish—delicate, herb-poached eggs served with a silky, bright Lemony Hollandaise, accented by the savory depth of smoked salmon. This recipe is a harmonious blend of fresh herbs, zesty lemon, and nutrient-rich eggs, perfect for a satisfying and elegant meal any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 large eggs
1 large egg yolk
1 tsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh mixed herbs (parsley & dill)
2 oz smoked salmon
Salt & pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Fill a medium saucepan with water and bring it to a gentle simmer. Add a pinch of salt.
Crack the 4 eggs into individual small bowls. Gently slide each egg into the simmering water and poach for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny.
While the eggs are poaching, prepare the Lemony Hollandaise: In a small heatproof bowl, whisk together the extra egg yolk, fresh lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) and slowly whisk in 1 teaspoon of unsalted butter until the sauce thickens, then stir in the chopped herbs.
Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the poached eggs from the water and place them on a plate lined with a paper towel to drain.
Arrange the poached eggs on your serving plate, drizzle the warm Lemony Hollandaise over the top, and artfully place the smoked salmon alongside or on top of the eggs.
Finish with a light sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper and additional herbs if desired, then serve immediately.
