How to Make the Perfect Eggs Benedict

It’s really surprising to me, the sheer number of people out there who don’t like eggs. Being a crazy egg fanatic, I just can’t quite seem to fathom how anyone could hate eggs! But here’s what I’ve concluded: it’s not that people don’t like eggs, it’s just that they’ve been having the wrong kinds!

Whether you love eggs or not, try out this Eggs Benedict recipe, and you’re sure to fall in love (with eggs, of course).


First off, here’s a list of ingredients you’re going to need:

•    4 eggs
•    2 English muffins
•    Hollandaise sauce (that you’ll need to prepare separately or purchase)
•    4 slices of ham or bacon
•    3 tablespoons white wine vinegar

Now, gather these ingredients, get your cooking hats on, and cook a gorgeous serving of Eggs Benedict that’s going to taste even better than at a restaurant in hauz khas that’s reputed to serve the best of eggs!

Follow these simple instructions:

•    To begin with, boil about 2 litres of water in a large, deep saucepan.
•    Next, you must add those 3 tablespoons of white wine vinegar to the boiling water.
•    To prepare the eggs, first break them into 4 small bowls each.
•    Whirl the boiling water mixed with vinegar to create a sort of whirlpools in the centre.
•    When you’re created this whirlpool, slip in an egg gently from the bowl right into the centre.
•    Now this is important, keep swirling around the egg so that the vortex is maintained and the egg stays within, forming a nice round shape.
•    Cook the egg in this fashion for about 4 minutes and then remove with a deep spoon.
•    Repeat the process with each egg.
•    In the meantime, you can cut the muffins and toast them up.
•    Then, generously spread the hollandaise sauce into the toasted muffin.
•    Top the hollandaise with the eggs.

Tada, you’ve got yourself some delicious Eggs Benedict so dig right in!
