Ultimate Breakfast Poutine with Creamy Hollandaise Sauce

A comforting dish featuring crispy French fries, cheese curds, perfectly cooked eggs, and a silky hollandaise sauce — perfect for brunch any day.

Ingredients

  • Frozen French fries
  • Cheese curds
  • Eggs
  • Butter
  • Egg yolks
  • Lemon juice
  • White vinegar
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Chives (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven and bake the frozen French fries according to the package instructions until they’re crispy and golden brown.
  2. While the fries are baking, prepare the eggs to your liking — poached eggs bring a classic touch, but fried eggs work just as well!
  3. In a saucepan, melt the butter and let it cool slightly. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking continuously until the sauce is smooth and thickened.
  4. On a large plate, start with a bed of crispy fries. Add a generous layer of cheese curds and then top it with your perfectly cooked eggs.
  5. Pour that creamy hollandaise sauce generously over the entire dish. For a burst of color and flavor, garnish with chopped chives if desired.
  6. Enjoy your homemade comfort food while it’s hot and fresh!

Notes

For an extra touch, serve with mixed greens dressed lightly in vinaigrette. Pairs well with sparkling mimosa or fresh-squeezed orange juice.
