Cooking method

Cooking time: 1 h 10 min

First of all, we will prepare the hollandaise sauce. To do this, we separate the proteins from the yolks, put the proteins in the refrigerator (they will be useful for other culinary masterpieces - meringue, for example), and beat the yolks with a blender, adding salt, lemon juice and paprika.

Melt the butter in the microwave and add it to the yolks, beat again. Pour the sauce into a saucepan and heat it in a water bath, stirring continuously with a whisk. When the mass begins to thicken, we remove the saucepan and immediately put it in a bowl with cold water so that the yolks do not curdle. The cooled sauce is sent to the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

We cook toasts with a toaster or brown them on both sides in a frying pan (without adding oil!)

Boil poached eggs. To do this, pour water into a small saucepan, add salt. When the water boils, we break the egg into a cup (carefully, so as not to damage the yolk), mix the water with a spoon and, lowering the cup low over the water, pour the egg into the boiling whirlpool with a quick movement. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then spread on a napkin to remove excess moisture.

Now we collect sandwiches:
- we spread a piece of ham on the cooled toasts, poached egg on top and complete the delicious design with Hollandaise sauce.

Served on a platter, garnished with chopped green onions.

Bon appetit!
