Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict with Avocado & Lemon-Dill Hollandaise

Posted by Manjeri Skincare Team on

Benefits:
Smoked salmon delivers omega-3 fatty acids to reduce inflammation and deeply hydrate the skin. Eggs provide protein and biotin to strengthen skin structure, while avocado offers vitamin E and healthy fats for smooth, supple skin. The lemon-dill hollandaise boosts collagen synthesis with vitamin C and promotes skin clarity.

Skin Concern: Inflammation, dry or irritated skin, loss of firmness

Prep Time: 25 minutes | Serves: 2

Ingredients:

Base & Toppings:

  • 2 English muffin halves (or gluten-free alternatives)

  • 4 slices smoked salmon

  • 1/2 avocado, sliced

  • 2 eggs, poached

  • Optional: fresh dill, microgreens, or thin cucumber slices for garnish

Lemon-Dill Hollandaise:

  • 2 egg yolks

  • 2 tbsp lemon juice

  • 1/4 cup melted ghee or grass-fed butter

  • 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill

  • Pinch of sea salt

  • Optional: small pinch of cayenne for warmth

Instructions:
Toast the English muffin halves until golden. Top each with a layer of smoked salmon and sliced avocado.
Poach the eggs in gently simmering water with a splash of vinegar for 3–4 minutes, until the whites are set and the yolks remain runny.
In a heatproof bowl over a double boiler, whisk the egg yolks and lemon juice continuously until they begin to thicken. Slowly drizzle in the melted ghee or butter, whisking until smooth and glossy. Stir in chopped dill, salt, and cayenne if using.
Top each muffin with a poached egg and spoon the warm hollandaise over the top. Garnish with extra dill or microgreens and serve immediately.

Shopping Tips:

  • Salmon: Choose wild-caught smoked salmon without artificial preservatives.

  • Eggs: Look for pasture-raised eggs for higher omega-3 content.

  • Dill: Use fresh dill for the brightest flavor and added anti-inflammatory benefits.

Cooking Tips:

  • Poach eggs ahead of time and rewarm gently in warm water just before serving.

  • If hollandaise becomes too thick, whisk in a spoonful of warm water to loosen.

  • For extra color and nutrition, serve with a side of arugula or shaved fennel salad.

This glow-boosting brunch is perfect for special Sundays, pairing indulgence with deeply restorative skin nutrients to leave you radiant and satisfied.
