Egg Benedict with hollandaise sauce


Another weekend brekky or brunch.. Egg Benedict with hollandaise sauce.. I love my egg Benedict swimming in the sauce!.. never had enough sauce when eating out.. Sometime I use smoked salmon instead of bacon depending on whatever I have in the fridge.. 

Ingredients

4 slices of shortcut bacon
1 English muffin (sliced in half)

Hollandaise sauce
2 egg yokes
1/2 tsp lemon juice

Method

Beat the egg yokes in the blender until lighter colour
In a saucepan, heat the lemon juice & white wine vinegar until bubblely
Slowly add the warm juice in the egg while the blender is on
In the saucepan, melt the butter 
Slowly add the warm melted butter into the blender while it's on
Keep the blender going until the sauce is blended well, fluffy with lighter buttery colour.

Grill the bacon until crispy
Toast the muffins
Poach the eggs in the pan.

Layer crispy bacon, poached eggs on the toasted muffins
Pour the sauce on the top
