Luscious, rich, and lemony hollandaise gets completely re-imagined here in a light, supremely creamy puree of avocado, lemon juice, and olive oil.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 very ripe medium Hass avocado, peeled and chopped

  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • Kosher salt

  • Freshly ground pepper

  • Poached eggs, for serving

Directions

  1. In a blender, combine the avocado and lemon juice with 1/3 cup of hot water. Puree until smooth and light in texture, about 2 minutes, scraping down the side of the bowl occasionally.
