Ingredients
½ (28 ounce) package frozen tater tots
½ (28 ounce) package frozen French fries
3 egg yolks
½ lemon, juiced
½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and clarified, if desired
pinch cayenne pepper
1-3 tablespoons warm chicken stock (optional)
salt and pepper
to taste
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 large beaten eggs
crumbled cooked turkey bacon (6 slices), halal alternative
8 ounces cooked breakfast sausage (turkey or halal-certified), crumbled
8 ounces cheddar cheese curds
2 thinly sliced green onions
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C)
Arrange tater tots and French fries on separate baking sheets
Bake simultaneously for 12–15 minutes until golden and crispy
While fries bake, make hollandaise sauce: Whisk egg yolks with lemon juice, cayenne, and a pinch of salt
Place a small saucepan with simmering hot water on medium heat
Add melted butter (or warmed chicken stock for extra depth) to yolk mixture, whisking constantly until doubled in volume and thick
Add scrambled eggs to a pan with 3 tbsp butter; cook gently until softly scrambled and just set
To assemble: Spoon fries into bowls, top with scrambled eggs, Hollandaise sauce, cheese curds, and a garnish of green onions
Notes
Substitute chicken stock for warmed cream of mushroom soup if desired
Adjust Hollandaise thickness by blending in warmed chicken stock gradually
Store leftover sauce in an ice-water bath after making
can be refrigerated up to 24 hours
Cheese curds work best when fresh; use crumbled cooked halal sausage as a pork-free protein
