Steps

How to make it

Prep 20 min · Cook 18 min

  1. Slice 2 baguette rolls crosswise; butter the cut sides and bake at 180°C / 350°F 5–7 minutes until golden and lightly crisp.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium with 1/2 tbsp olive oil and a little butter; add 120 g sautéed mushrooms; stir-fry until they release moisture, then reduce heat until dry; sprinkle 1/6 tsp sea salt and a little cracked black pepper; keep warm.
  3. Bring 120 g smoked salmon to room temperature from the fridge; roll into bite-size portions; drain capers to taste.
  4. Bring a saucepan of water to a boil with 1 tbsp white vinegar; reduce heat; stir a gentle whirlpool with a spoon; crack in 2 eggs and poach over low heat about 3 minutes until whites set and yolks runny; drain well.
  5. In a separate small pan over low heat, gently warm the remaining 1/2 tbsp olive oil into a warm drizzling sauce.
  6. Divide toasted baguette on plates; layer sautéed mushrooms, smoked salmon, and 2 poached eggs on each; garnish with capers to taste.
  7. Drizzle warm olive oil sauce; sprinkle 1/3 tsp sea salt and 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper; serve hot.

Tips & storage

Make it easier

  • Finish the main component and sauce separately before plating so the textures stay layered.
  • Keep cold garnish and hot proteins apart until the final minute for a more restaurant-like result.
  • Rest meat for 2–3 minutes before slicing; when pieces vary in thickness, check the thickest center for doneness.

Best enjoyed on the day it is made; refrigerate components separately when possible and reheat gently.

FAQ

What makes this 燻鮭魚奶油炒菇班尼蛋 feel closer to the restaurant version?

Build the signature sauce separately, then finish the plate at the last minute so the texture stays layered and generous.

How do I keep the main ingredient from drying out?

Adjust the heat for thickness, rest before slicing, and reheat chilled portions gently after cooling them completely.
