"It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad." -C.S. Lewis
This is a rich and decadent weekend breakfast that is made better by the creamy roasted eggplant.
Servings: 2 | Serving size: 2 halves of an English muffin with 2 eggs and sauce
Cooking Time: 30 Minutes
This recipe can easily be multiplied or halved but does not make very good leftovers. This recipe also requires making Mustard Hollandaise Sauce.
Place a large skillet in the oven and preheat oven to 325F.
Place 2 tsps olive oil in the skillet.
When oven comes to temperature, place the eggplant into the skillet, cut side down.
Roast for 15 minutes, then turn the eggplant over and roast for another 5 minutes. Remove the eggplant from the skillet and place the eggplant on a plate lined with a paper towel to cool. Set aside.
While the eggplant is roasting, make the Mustard Hollandaise per the recipe.
Keep the Hollandaise warm over very low heat, stirring occasionally.
(See refrigerator light on this page.)
Place water over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium so the water is barely moving. Add the vinegar.
Crack each egg into a small dish or cup, taking care to keep the yolk whole. Add each egg to the poaching water and poach for 8-10 minutes.
While the eggs are poaching, toast the Engilsh muffins. Place a slice of roasted Eggplant onto each half of an English muffin. Remove the poached eggs from the water with a slotted spoon when ready to serve.
Top the eggplant with 1 poached egg and 1/4 sauce, then serve.
