Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large mixing bowl, toss hash browns with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 20-30 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown.
  2. While the hash browns are baking, prepare the beef bacon. Arrange slices on another baking sheet, and bake at 400-425°F (200-220°C) for 15-20 minutes, until crisp.
  3. Set up a double boiler. Whisk egg yolks, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and lemon juice in a heatproof bowl until thickened. Gradually add melted butter while whisking until sauce is velvety. Add cayenne and season to taste.
  4. To poach eggs, bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Crack eggs into small bowls and slide them into the water. Poach for 3-4 minutes, then remove with a slotted spoon.
  5. Assemble poutine on plates: Start with hash browns, add cheddar and mozzarella, pour hot gravy, drizzle hollandaise, add beef bacon, and top with poached eggs. Garnish with chives or parsley.
