You won't believe how simple it is to make this hollandaise—no whisking required!
Ingredients
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1/2 onion, sliced thinly on a mandolin
- 1/2 c. cornstarch
- kosher salt
- 1 1/2 lb. medium asparagus, washed and trimmed
- extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1/2 tsp. Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp. lemon zest
- 2 tbsp. lemon juice
- 1/2 c. unsalted butter
- 1/8 tsp. cayenne
- 2 tsp. chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line half sheet pan with parchment paper and spread asparagus in a single layer on the parchment. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- In a medium pot filled with 3 inches of oil, heat to 365 degrees F. Meanwhile, line a plate with paper towels. Rinse onions in a bowl of cold water and pat dry on a kitchen towel to remove moisture. Add cornstarch to a mixing bowl and dredge onions. When oil has reached 365 degrees F, shake off excess cornstarch and add onions to hot oil in batches. Use a slotted spoon to carefully lower onions into oil. Fry until golden brown, remove from oil and drain on paper towels. Repeat process for second batch and season immediately with salt.
- After preheating oven, roast asparagus until fork tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
- In a blender add egg yolks, mustard, lemon zest, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cayenne. Pulse a few times to combine and run blender until mixture is frothy. Either melt butter in a small sauce pan or a microwave proof bowl. While blender is running, pour hot butter in a slow steady stream. (Sauce should be thick. If needed add a splash of water to thin it out.) Serve sauce immediately or place in a glass or metal bowl wrapped in plastic. Place bowl securely on top of another bowl filled with warm water.
- Pour hollandaise sauce over asparagus and garnish with crispy onions and parsley.
