Poached Duck Eggs with Spinach and Cheese Sauce

Method

 
1. For the poached eggs: bring a wide shallow pan of water to the boil. Add a splash of vinegar and a pinch of salt, and lower the heat so that the water is at a simmer.

2. Break the eggs into the pan and poach for 3 minutes. Lift each egg out with a slotted spoon and drain briefly on kitchen paper.

3. For the spinach and cheese sauce: heat the butter in a large saucepan. Add the spinach and cook until wilted. Season to taste with salt and pepper and keep warm.

4. In a small pan, warm the whipping cream and cheddar over a low heat. Again, season to taste.

5. To serve, arrange the spinach on each serving plate, top each serving with a poached egg and pour over the sauce. Serve at once.
