  1. Ingredients for the eggs:
  2. 2farm fresh eggs
  3. 4English muffins
  4. 4thick slabs of bacon
  5. Ingredients for the Hollandaise sauce:
  6. Juice of one lemon

  8. 1 cupExtra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain
  9. Orange zest
  10. Minced fine herbs (according to your preference): dill, chives, tarragon

Cooking Instructions

30 minutes
  1. 1

    Try making the Hollandaise sauce from scratch so it is a bit healthier. To do so, create a double boiler by boiling some water and placing another bowl above the boiling pot. Add 2 egg yolks, the lemon juice and the orange zest. Mix it for approximately 3 minutes until the mix acquires a creamy texture. Slowly add in one cup of Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain. Season with salt, dill, chives and tarragon.

  2. 2

    Then line a small bowl with saran wrap and brush it with Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain. Add the egg, salt and close the packet. Submerge it in boiling water for 3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Another option is to cook the eggs in a strainer to remove the excess water. Let cook for 3 minutes in water, which has been brought to its boiling point, but with the heat off so they do not break apart.

  4. 4

    Cook the bacon on both sides in a pan without oil. Toast the bread in a toaster.

  5. 5

    Assemble the egg and bacon on top of the bread. To finish, cover with the Hollandaise sauce, garnish with a sprig of dill and you can accompany it with a salad with Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain to give it a special touch.
