Sour eggs

Ingredients for 2 servings:

• 4 eggs
• 6 m.-sized potatoes
• 2 tbsp butter or margarine
• 2 tbsp flour
• Mustard
• Vinegar
• Salt
• Sugar
• 50 g bacon, diced, as desired

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour

Boil the eggs hard, rinse well, and peel them. Peel the potatoes and cook them in salted water until tender. For the roux, melt the butter or margarine in a large saucepan. Add the flour and immediately whisk until it forms a thick paste. Gradually add a little cold water, stirring constantly, until the sauce reaches the desired consistency. Season with mustard, salt, vinegar, and sugar. If the sauce is too thick, thin it with water. Add the eggs and let it simmer for a while. Never add flour afterwards, as this will cause lumps to form. If you like, you can fry bacon until crispy and add it in cubes. Serve the sauce with the eggs and the boiled potatoes. PS: I’ve tried out a lot of recipes from here. Many are described with onions and vegetable stock, which I don’t like at all! I’d love it if you tried my recipe and let me know how you like it.
