Make curry powder with an assortment of dried herbs and spices.
Hollandaise sauce is naturally low in carbohydrates and full of flavor. The rich and creamy butter- and egg-based sauce is typically used for eggs Benedict. You can also use the sauce, which features a hint of fresh lemon, to accent other egg or even seafood and vegetable dishes. If you're pressed for time in the kitchen, prepare a classic Hollandaise sauce conveniently in your microwave rather than on a stove.
Instructions
1. Soften a 1/2 cup of butter in a microwave-safe measuring cup.
2. Whisk together three egg yolks, 1 3/4 tbsp. of freshly squeezed lemon juice and salt, ground black pepper and cayenne pepper to taste in a microwave-safe mixing bowl.
3. Add the softened butter and whisk until the mixture is well-blended.
4. Microwave the sauce on high in 15-second increments for one minute, or until it is smooth. Take the bowl out of the microwave and whisk the ingredients every 15 seconds. Don't over stir the sauce to prevent it from breaking or separating.
