Arguably not.<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s quite an involved dish, requiring several components that need to come together simultaneously. Not what you want on Valentine\u2019s when you should be cooing and eye-fluttering. Romance rarely arose from a hunched lover sweating and gurning over a crowded hob. No, the placid cook is the best romancer.<\/p>\n<p>This recipe offers the same level of creamy indulgence as eggs benedict without the headache. And we all know the effects of an unexpected headache can have on passion\u2019s early flickerings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Serves 2.
