I was reading one of my cookbooks the other day, coming up with some ideas… and I found a neat breakfast type dish called Eggs Hussarde. I didn’t have all the ingredients needed to make it, but still wanted to have something of a similar vain. It did serve to inspire me to make this though:
I bought some sourdough English muffins and some back bacon (or Canadian bacon as we call it in the states). There was also a bunch of tomatoes that were heavily discounted, so I bought them all up and made them into a balsamic tomato sauce, and instead of Hollandaise I made a white sauce with Parmesan and Marsala. I lightly seared the bacon on both sides in a pan and made the poached eggs using a microwave. It’s really good, but also really rich in flavor. I don’t think this is something that I would make every weekend, but as a treat every so often to take a break from the traditional weekend omelette I seem to do every so often.
Now, I wonder what I’ll call this dish. Eggs Tomala? Eggs ala Overlord?
