Instructions
Creating Breakfast Poutine with Hollandaise Sauce is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Fries: Toss the cut potatoes in olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
3. Bake the Fries: Bake the fries for 30-35 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
4. Prepare the Gravy: While the fries are baking, prepare your gravy according to package directions or your preferred recipe.
5. Poach the Eggs: In a pot of simmering water, create a gentle whirlpool. Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide it into the water. Cook for 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk or longer for firmer yolks. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.
6. Make the Hollandaise Sauce:
– In a heatproof bowl, whisk together egg yolks and lemon juice until pale and thick.
– Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler). Gradually whisk in melted butter until the sauce is thick and creamy.
– Season with salt and cayenne pepper (if using).
7. Assemble the Poutine: On a plate, layer the crispy fries, followed by the cheese curds. Pour hot gravy over the top, allowing the cheese to melt slightly.
8. Top with Eggs: Place the poached eggs on top of the gravy-covered fries.
9. Drizzle with Hollandaise: Generously drizzle hollandaise sauce over the assembled dish.
10. Serve Immediately: Enjoy the breakfast poutine while it’s hot and fresh.
