Oh. My. Goodness. Ladies and gents, let me tell you about a breakfast recipe that’ll make your taste buds do a happy dance! As someone who’s burned more toast than I care to admit, trust me when I say this recipe is absolutely foolproof and definitely worth rolling out of bed for.
Let’s talk about my Crispy Potato Nest Benedict with Sriracha Hollandaise (fancy, right?). It’s basically what would happen if hash browns and eggs Benedict had a beautiful baby, and then that baby got dressed up for the Met Gala.
What you’ll need (shopping list time, besties!):
– 2 large russet potatoes
– 4 fresh eggs
– 4 slices of crispy bacon
– 1/2 cup butter
– 3 egg yolks
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice
– Sriracha sauce (however spicy you’re feeling)
– Salt and pepper
– Fresh chives (because we’re fancy like that)
Now, let me walk you through this masterpiece:
1. First, grate those potatoes like your life depends on it. Pro tip: squeeze out ALL the moisture with a clean kitchen towel. Trust me, soggy potatoes are NOT the vibe we’re going for.
1. Season your potato shreds with salt and pepper, then form them into little nests in a muffin tin. Brush with melted butter (because butter makes everything better, duh).
1. Bake at 425°F for about 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy. _chef’s kiss_

1. Now for the hollandaise (don’t be scared, we’ve got this): Melt your butter and keep it warm. In a blender, combine egg yolks, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Blend while slowly drizzling in the warm butter. Add Sriracha to taste – I usually go wild with it because life’s too short for bland sauce!
1. Poach your eggs (I know, I know, poaching eggs can be tricky – but you’re a kitchen warrior, you’ve got this!)
1. Assembly time! Place your crispy potato nests on plates, add crumbled bacon, top with poached eggs, and drizzle with that spicy hollandaise sauce. Sprinkle with chives because we’re not savages.
Y’all, when I tell you this breakfast is life-changing, I am not even exaggerating! It’s perfect for impressing overnight guests (wink wink) or just treating yourself on a lazy Sunday morning.
