Ingredients
2 eggs
2 slices of veggie ham*
1 English muffin, sliced
Hollandaise sauce
Directions
The first and most important thing to do is to man up**. After this, boil a pot of water that is about ¾ full. Then, turn down the burner so the water is just below the boiling point. If the water is too violent it will rip apart the egg. Once the water is at this point, stir the water CLOCKWISE; this is vital. If done correctly there will be a small whirlpool. Crack an egg and drop it directly into the center of the whirlpool. Let the egg cook for 1-2 minutes. Repeat one time. This is where step one comes into play. While poaching the eggs, you must also toast the English muffin and fry up the ham. This might sound overwhelming, but not if you followed step one. Place the toasted English muffin halves on your plate, place the pieces of ham on top of the muffins, followed by the poached eggs. Finally, drizzle Hollandaise sauce over everything.
*Evan's original recipe calls for ham, but for the purposes of this blog this recipe has been edited to be veggie-friendly. In place of ham, I would recommend slices of veggie ham or tomatoes.
**Evan also consistently likes to make fun of the fact that I am a FemGen major, hence the usage of this term.
Note: I intend to make Eggs Benedict while I'm home for winter break in a few weeks. I'll let you know how mine turns out, and include directions for the Hollandaise!
