Ingredients
- French fries: frozen or homemade
- Cheese curds: fresh, squeaky
- Eggs: poached or sunny-side-up
- Hollandaise sauce: homemade or store-bought
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: chopped green onions, fresh chives, sliced avocado, a squeeze of lemon, toasted nuts
Instructions
- Prepare the fries: cook frozen fries according to package directions, or cut Russet potatoes into sticks, pat dry, toss with oil and salt, and bake or fry until golden and crisp.
- Make the eggs: poach or fry eggs to your preference. For poaching, simmer water with vinegar, create a whirlpool, and slip in eggs for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Warm the cheese curds briefly if desired: spread curds over hot fries so they begin to soften.
- Plate the fries: transfer hot fries to a shallow serving plate in a single layer.
- Add the curds and eggs: sprinkle cheese curds over the fries, then place the poached or fried eggs on top.
- Drizzle the Hollandaise: spoon warm Hollandaise sauce over the eggs and curds.
- Season and finish: add salt, black pepper, and any optional toppings.
Notes
Serve immediately to keep fries crispy and eggs warm. Optional toppings can enhance flavor and presentation.
