Ingredients:
- 1 bunch of asparagus spears
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- 2 tablespoons of margarine
- 1/2 cup of flour
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 1 2/3 cups of milk
- 2 hard-boiled eggs
- 8 slices of Canadian bacon
- 4 English muffins
- Paprika (for sprinkling)
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Asparagus: Begin by cooking the asparagus until tender. Once cooked, keep it warm and set it aside for later use.
-
Make the Creamy Sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour, salt, and curry powder until well combined. Gradually add the milk, stirring continuously, until the mixture thickens and becomes bubbly.
-
Incorporate Eggs: Once the sauce has thickened, stir in the chopped hard-boiled eggs. Set the sauce aside for assembly later.
-
Brown the Canadian Bacon: Lightly brown the Canadian bacon slices in a skillet until they develop a golden hue. Place a slice of Canadian bacon over each half of the English muffins.
-
Assemble the Meal: Arrange the cooked asparagus spears over the Canadian bacon on each English muffin half. Spoon the creamy sauce generously over the asparagus, bacon, and muffins.
-
Add Final Touches: Sprinkle a dash of paprika over each assembled muffin for added flavor and visual appeal.
-
Optional Finishing Step: If the assembled muffins have cooled by the time you finish assembling them, you can place them on a baking sheet and broil them for a few minutes until they are heated through and lightly toasted.
