Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Bring a deep saucepan of water to the boil (at least 2 litres) and
add 3 tbsp white wine vinegar. Lower the heat down to a gentle simmer.
* Step 2
Break the eggs into four separate coffee cups or ramekins. Split the muffins, toast them for a few minutes either side and warm some plates.
* Step 3
To make the hollandaise:
Melt the butter in a saucepan and skim any white solids from the
surface (clarified butter). Keep the butter warm.
* Step 4
Put the egg yolks, white wine or tarragon vinegar, a pinch of salt
and a splash of ice-cold water in a metal or glass bowl that will fit over a small pan.
* Step 5
Remove from the heat and slowly whisk in the melted butter bit by
bit until it's all incorporated and you have a creamy hollandaise. (If it gets too thick, add a splash of water.) Season with a squeeze of lemon juice and a little cayenne pepper. Keep warm until needed.
* Step 6
To make the eggs benedict:
Swirl the simmering vinegared water briskly to form a vortex
and slide in an egg. It will curl round and set to a neat round shape.
Cook for 2-3 mins, then remove with a slotted spoon.
* Step 7
Repeat with the other eggs, one at a time, re-swirling the water as you slide in the eggs. Spread some sauce on each muffin, scrunch a slice of ham on top, then top with an egg. Spoon over the remaining hollandaise and serve at once.
