Stuck on what to do with those leftover brussels? Add them into these potato cakes with a poached egg and homemade hollandaise sauce, for a sophisticated Boxing Day breakfast.
Fry the thinly diced shallot, leftover vegetables and Rub Me Tender together and then mix into the mash
Add 1tbsp of the plain flour and 1 egg yolk to the mash mixture and form into patties
Coat the patties in leftover flour and fry in butter for 2 minutes on each side
Sauté the spinach in butter
Meanwhile poach 2 eggs
To make the hollandaise sauce, melt the butter in a bowl over a pan of boiling water
In a new bowl over a pan of low simmering water add remaining egg yolks and whisk, add the white wine vinegar and whisk again, then add the butter slowly whilst whisking to create a creamy thick sauce. Season to taste
To serve place a patty on the plate with some sautéd spinach, topped with a poached egg and hollandaise sauce
Perfect for the festive cold months, irresistible when warm and gooey, but even better after a few days later when they get to their optimum texture - If they last that long!
