Smoked Salmon Benedict

I saw this on Food TV and as per usual made some changes. This starts with a sour cream dill schmear, a potato pancake base, then some smoked salmon. A poached egg joins the party, then a chive hollandaise sauce is introduced and then topped with some salmon caviar. Kinda like New York deli meets local dinner. I hope you like it.
