Eggs Sardou I Recipe - Cooking Index
| 6 tablespoons | 90ml | Butter |
| 2 tablespoons | 30ml | Flour |
| 1/2 cup | 118ml | Milk |
| 1/2 cup | 118ml | Heavy cream |
| 1 1/2 lbs | 681g / 24oz | Fresh spinach - finely chopped |
| Salt - to taste | ||
| Freshly-ground white pepper - to taste | ||
| 8 | Fresh artichoke bottoms (large) | |
| 1 teaspoon | 5ml | Vinegar |
| 8 | Eggs | |
| 2 cups | 474ml | Hollandaise sauce - warm |
| 1 tablespoon | 15ml | Chopped parsley |
In a large saute pan, over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter. Stir in the flour and mix well. Cook for 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and cream slowly and bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the sauce coats the back of a spoon, about 3 minutes. Stir in the spinach and season with salt and pepper. Continue to simmer for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
In another saute pan, over medium heat, melt the remaining butter. Add the artichoke bottoms to the pan and saute for 2 minutes. (Just the heat the artichokes through.) Season the artichokes with salt and pepper. Cover the pan with a lid and remove from the heat.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the vinegar to the water. Crack each egg into a small cup. Carefully slide one egg into the water. When the water has come back to a slight boil, slide in another egg. Continue the process until all the eggs are in the water. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the eggs are set, about 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Remove the eggs from the water and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season the eggs with salt and pepper.
To assemble, spoon the creamed spinach in the center of each artichoke bottom. Place the filled artichokes on a platter. Lay the poached eggs directly on top of the creamed spinach. Drizzle the hollandaise over the poached egg. Garnish with parsley.
This recipe yields 4 servings.
