Ingredients
- 4 large free range eggs
- 1 packet Schwartz Hollandaise Sauce Mix
- 300 ml (1/2 pint) milk
- 25 g (1 oz) butter (optional)
- 4 slices ciabatta
- 175 g (6 oz) fresh spinach
- 1 tbs olive oil
- pinch Schwartz Nutmeg Ground
- 4 tbs grated Parmesan cheese
- Schwartz Sea Salt and Black Pepper to season
A delicous breakfast or brunch dish with eggs, spinach and Hollandaise Sauce flavoured with Nutmeg and parmesan cheese.
Method
Step 1
Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil. Create a whirlpool effect in the pan by swirling the water around with a wooden spoon (this will allow the white to encapsulate the yolk). Crack one egg at a time into the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine the Hollandaise Sauce Mix packet contents with the milk and bring to the boil stirring. Add the butter and simmer for 1-2 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, griddle the ciabatta slices until lightly toasted. Then roughly shred the spinach and sauté in the olive oil for 2-3 minutes until wilted.
Step 4
Serve the spinach and poached eggs on top of the ciabatta slices. Season and sprinkle a pinch of Ground Nutmeg and 1 tbs Parmesan cheese over each egg.
Step 5
Drizzle over a little of the Hollandaise Sauce and serve immediately.
