DIRECTIONS

  • In saucepan, whisk egg yolks, water, and lemon juice until blended. Cook over very low heat, stirring constantly until yolk mixture bubbles at edges and sauce reaches 160°F. Gradually stir in butter until melted and heated through. Season with salt and white pepper. Stir in basil or chives. Cover and keep warm.
  • In large nonstick pan, cook shallots in olive oil until translucent, about 3 minutes.
  • Stir in risotto; cook and stir over medium heat until risotto is lightly browned. Stir in white wine until absorbed.
  • Continue cooking, adding chicken broth, 4 oz. at a time, until absorbed, stirring occasionally, and rice is a cream texture, about 20 minutes.
  • Stir in pepper, cheeses, corned beef, and green pepper. Cover and keep warm.
  • Poach eggs in acidified water (1 teaspoon vinegar per 2 cups water), until whites are set (completely coagulated and firm) and the yolks begin to thicken (no longer runny, but not hard). Keep warm until service.
  • To serve, portion about 3/4 cup (6 oz.) risotto on plate. Top with 2 poached eggs and 3 oz. sauce; garnish with pine nuts and fresh fruit. Serve immediately.
