Eggs are such a versatile ingredient
Eggs Benedict Florentine
Serves: four people
Ingredients
Eight thin rashers of smoked streaky bacon
Dash of vinegar
Four large eggs
Two English muffins, halved
Knob of butter, plus extra for spreading
200g baby spinach
For the hollandaise
Two egg yolks
One tsp white wine vinegar
100g unsalted butter, melted
Salt and black pepper
Hollandaise sauce
Method
Preheat the oven to 200C (180 fan/gas six). Bake, fry or grill the bacon for 10 minutes. Keep warm.
To make the hollandaise sauce
Whisk the egg yolks and white wine vinegar together in a bowl. Sit the bowl over a pan of simmering water (making sure the bowl doesn’t touch the water).
Pour in the melted butter, whisking continuously until the glossy sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with cling film and set aside.
To poach the eggs
Bring the same pan of water up to the boil, reduce to a simmer and add a dash of vinegar. Crack each egg into a ramekin and swirl the water, then slowly tip the eggs into the pan.
Simmer for three to four minutes. Meanwhile, toast the muffin halves and butter them. Once the timer is up, remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
Heat a frying pan, add the butter until melted and fry the spinach until wilted, then season. Divide the muffins between four plates, add the spinach, top with the egg, spoon over the hollandaise and put two rashers on top.
