Eggs Benedict with Laverbread (I guess this would be Wyau Benedict a Bara Lawr)
(c)2011 Ian Oliver

•  fry laverbread with bacon (fry small pieces of bacon in their own fat, until almost crispy, then add laverbread and fry until that is cooked)
• place thick slice of ham (real ham!) on a muffin or half bagel
• place fried laverbread and bacon on top
• then a poached egg
• then Hollandaise sauce over the top (seasoned with a little black pepper)

Hollandaise Sauce

A buttery sauce made from egg yolk, butter and a little lemon juice... 

• Delia Smith recipie
• Eggs Benedict  (includes Holandaise Sauce recipe) from Jamie Oliver

Poached Eggs (properly)

• boil water with a touch of vinegar and salt (helps keep the egg white together)
• break egg, drop into boiling water for 2 to 2 1/2 minutes
• take eggs out using slotted spoon - dry a little to remove excess water (most of which should evaporate)
• the whites should be cooked and the yolks runny (!!)
