Ingredients

500 g Portobello mushrooms, cut into 1cm slices
28 g unsalted butter
15 ml extra virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
Salt and ground black pepper
80 ml double cream (or sour cream or mascarpone)
5 sprigs lemon thyme
2 pieces sourdough bread, toasted
4 large free range eggs, poached
Store bought hollandaise sauce
30 g finely sliced chives

Method

1

In a large pan, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, cooking each side for 3–4 minutes, or until well browned. Continue to stir often for about 5 minutes more, until all sides of the mushrooms are well browned and tender.

2

Add the sliced garlic and stir for 30 seconds, then season with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to low, then add the cream and the lemon thyme. Stir continuously with a rubber spatula until the mushrooms are well coated and the sauce turns shiny and luscious.

3

Gently heat the hollandaise sauce.

4

Drizzle toast with some extra virgin olive oil, then divide the mushrooms between the two toasts. Place two poached eggs on top of each slice, then drizzle over hollandaise sauce and sprinkle with chives.
