Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the frozen hash browns with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 20-30 minutes until golden and crispy.
  2. Preheat another oven to 400-425°F (200-220°C). Line another baking sheet with foil and bake the beef bacon for 15-20 minutes until crispy. Crumble the bacon and set aside.
  3. Set up a double boiler. Whisk together egg yolks, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and lemon juice for 3-5 minutes until thick. Gradually add melted butter while whisking until glossy. Season with cayenne and salt.
  4. For poached eggs, simmer water in a pot and add vinegar. Crack eggs into a small bowl and slide into the water, poaching for 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.
  5. To assemble, divide crispy hash browns on plates. Sprinkle cheeses, ladle gravy over, drizzle Hollandaise, and top with beef bacon and poached eggs. Garnish with chives or parsley.
