Truffle Infused Eggs Benedict

Difficulty: MEDIUM

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 35 minutes

Serving Size: Serves 2

Ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 English muffins, split and toasted
  • 8 slices of prosciutto
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon truffle oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped chives for garnish

Directions:

  1. Fill a saucepan with water and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the white vinegar.
  2. Carefully crack the eggs into the simmering water and poach for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  3. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. In a heatproof bowl, whisk the egg yolks and lemon juice. Gradually whisk in the melted butter to create a hollandaise sauce. Stir in the truffle oil and season with salt and pepper.
  4. To assemble, place a slice of prosciutto on each toasted English muffin half, top with a poached egg, and drizzle with the truffle hollandaise sauce.
  5. Garnish with chopped chives and serve immediately.
