Step-by-Step Instructions for Ultimate Breakfast Poutine
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the frozen hash browns with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and bake for 20-30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  2. Line another baking sheet with foil and arrange the beef bacon. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes until crispy. Cool and crumble the bacon.
  3. Set up a double boiler and whisk egg yolks, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and lemon juice in a bowl for 3-5 minutes until thickened. Gradually whisk in melted butter and cayenne pepper.
  4. Poach eggs in simmering water with vinegar for 3-4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove and let drain.
  5. Divide crispy hash browns into bowls, top with cheddar and mozzarella, then ladle gravy. Add beef bacon and a poached egg, drizzle with Hollandaise, and garnish with chives or parsley.
