Ingredients Needed
- 4 slices of crusty bread or baguette
- 1 pound of thinly sliced roast beef
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste

Preparing the Dijon Hollandaise
Start by creating a double boiler. In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and Dijon mustard until smooth. Place the bowl over simmering water, ensuring the bottom does not touch the water. Whisk constantly until the mixture thickens slightly. Gradually add the melted butter in a slow, steady stream, whisking continuously. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
Assembling the Sandwiches
Toast the bread slices until golden. Layer the slices with roast beef, then generously spoon the Dijon Hollandaise over the top. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Close the sandwiches and serve immediately for a warm, flavorful meal.
Serving Suggestions
- Pair with a crisp green salad for a balanced meal.
