An omelette Arnold Bennett is a flat omelette served in a dish.

I'm going to add a little bit of a twist.

I'm going to take away the smoked haddock

that normally goes with this dish and I'm going to ask our chefs

to use crab meat instead. It's got gruyere cheese.

It's served with a hollandaise sauce over the top,

So, for the hollandaise, the first thing I need to do

a couple of bay leaves and some white peppercorns.

As you start to whisk the eggs, you have to be very careful.

Too hot and it will start to cook the egg yolks.

which is when you lift it up, you see the ribbons in the bowl.

My white wine vinegar is now reduced by half.

Now we need to start adding our clarified butter.

What you need to do now is a little spoon of vinegar,

and that automatically just lets that sauce right down.

That allows me now to incorporate some more butter.

Did Arnold Bennett, the author, order it in the Savoy?

is going to have to come into the equation.

So, now it's just about getting it to the right consistency and taste.

And what we've also got on the bench here

Believe it or not, it actually takes the richness of the hollandaise down a little bit.

Right, I'm going to make the omelette now.

So, I'm going to use four eggs, give the eggs a good whisk.

Butter's foaming, just nicely coming up to temperature.

So, you're making almost like a half-scrambled,

half-omelette type mixture in the pan here.

and then what we do is you just pour on our hollandaise.

It's layered up. It's ready to go. Now I've just got to glaze it.

So, that just takes a couple of seconds to brown it, then?

And there you have it - omelette Arnold Bennett with crab meat.
