Cooking Steps

Poach the eggs
1
  • Boil plenty of water in a large saucepan and add the white wine vinegar (see Tip). 
  • Crack each egg into a small glass. Swirl the water in the pan to create a vortex. 
  • Carefully drop the eggs one by one into the center of the whirlpool and reduce the heat to low. 
  • Poach the eggs like this for 4 - 5 minutes, until the egg whites are fully cooked. Remove the eggs from the pan with a slotted spoon. 

Tip: you can also cook the eggs by boiling them for 8 - 10 minutes instead of poaching them. 

Prepare
2
  • Preheat the oven to 190°C.
  • Transfer the bacon to a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in the oven for 8 - 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the brioche buns, bread rolls and croissants to a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 5 - 6 minutes.  
Fry the spinach
3
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat and gradually add the spinach, tearing it directly into the pan.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste and cook for 4 - 6 minutes. 
  • Heat the Hollandaise sauce in a saucepan for 1 - 2 minutes. 
Prepare the yogurt bowls
4
  • In the meantime, peel and dice the mango. Halve and pit the avocado, then remove the skin and slice the flesh.
  • Divide the yogurt into four bowls. Top the bowls with the mango and drizzle with honey to taste. 
  • Add the smoked salmon to a serving plate with the avocado.
  • Juice the oranges and serve the juice in four glasses.
Make the eggs benedict
5
  • Cut open the brioche buns and place them on plates. 
  • Add the spinach and the bacon to the buns. 
  • Place the poached eggs on top and pour the Hollandaise sauce over the eggs.
Set the table
6
  • Slice the stollen and arrange the croissants on a serving platter.
  • Lay the table with the smoked salmon, avocado, cream cheese, bread rolls, jam, yogurt bowls and orange juice.
  • Serve the eggs benedict.
