Hi all - I had a recipe for a really easy hollandaise - and I've lost it!!! I can remember that it all went in the blender, egg yolks, melted butter, lemon juice and more. Has anyone got it please? Want to do eggs benedict for brekky tomorrow, so need to make it tonight. Thanks in advance.

here are two I use the first from Alison Holstboth areso easy
Hollandaise sauce Holsts blender and a microwave. Take an egg yolk and two teaspoons of lemon juice, pop them into a blender and give it a whirl. Then cut up 50 grams of butter into cubes and microwave the blazes out of them until they melt and bubble vigorously. Next, with the blender whirring, slowly pour the hot butter into the egg and lemon mix. The mixture will thicken. Pour it into a microwave-proof container, preferably with a round bottom, and zap in the microwave for five seconds at a time. "It's to heat it enough to thicken the mixture," Alison says. "If I was making double I would have just given it a whisk with a wire whisk at that stage." Altogether, our lot goes in the microwave for four bursts of five seconds, and it's delicious, zingy and thick.
HOLLANDAISE SAUCE BLENDER Start to finish: 5 minutes Makes about 3/4 cup Ingredients: 3 egg yolks 1/4 teaspoon salt Pinch black pepper 1 to 2 tablespoons lemon juice 8 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces Directions: In a blender, combine the egg yolks, salt, pepper and 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice. Set aside. In a small saucepan over medium-high, add the butter and heat until foaming. Blend the egg yolk mixture at top speed for 2 seconds then, with the blender running, remove the cover and pour in the hot butter in a thin stream of droplets. By the time two-thirds of the butter has been added, the sauce will be a thick cream. Continue pouring, but don't pour in the milky residue at the bottom of the pan. Taste and adjust seasonings. If not using the sauce immediately, set the blender carafe in tepid, but not warm, water.
