Eggs Florentine (Florentin Usulu Yumurta)

2 English muffins, split and toasted
1 Tbsp softened unsalted butter
2 cups packed spinach leaves, chopped or whole
2 eggs
1 tsp vinegar

Hollandaise Sauce:
2 egg yolks
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp water
Pinch of salt to taste
2 pinches of freshly ground pepper
6-8 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted


For the sauce, set over a pot of barely simmering water in a heatproof bowl, combine the egg yolks, lemon and water and whisk constantly until the mixture begins to thicken, then continue whisking for about 1 minute more. Remove the bowl from over the pan as soon as the mixture thickens. Add the salt and pepper. Blend the mixture with a stick blender while slowly pouring in the melted butter in a thin stream until incorporated, about 2 minutes. Cover and keep warm over very low heat until ready to serve. 

Lightly spread the cut side of each muffin with 1/2 tsp of the softened butter. Melt the remaining 1 tsp butter in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the spinach and cook until slightly wilted, about 2-4 minutes. Keep them warm until served. Fill a deep pan with 1/2 inch water to poach the eggs, leave the pan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Crack the eggs into the simmering water. Cover and cook until the whites are firm and the yolks are glazed over but still soft, about 3 minutes, or until done to your liking. Transfer the eggs to a warmed plate.

Top each muffin half with some of the spinach, an egg and generous amount of the sauce. Serve immediately.

ENJOY
