Answer 1

Hollandaise is tricky to make but so yummy. You need eggs, lemon juice, and water, plus a double boiler and butter. Melt 1/2 cup butter, then heat 1 1/2 T lemon juice.Put three egg yolks in double boiler and whiskuntil they start to thicken. Add one T boiling water then beat in lemon juice. Remove from heat and beat with a wire whisk. Beat constantly while adding melted butter

Answer 2

Hollandaise Sauce
1/2 cup butter
2 egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice
few grains cayenne pepper
PREPARATION:
Melt butter in a double boiler over simmering water (low heat). Beat egg yolks well and add to butter, stirring constantly with a wire whisk or wooden spoon. Gradually add lemon juice. Cook, stirring, until thickened and hot.

Diane sauce
3/4 cup canned tomato sauce
3/4 cup barbeque sauce
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons crushed garlic

DIRECTIONS:
In a saucepan, combine the tomato sauce, barbeque sauce, cream, Worcestershire sauce and garlic. Heat over medium-low setting, stirring, until it comes to a simmer. Allow to simmer for 10 minutes but do not let it boil.

Answer 3

Hollandaise can be a pain to get right; I personally avoid making it. Diane (as in Steak Diane) is pretty much butter, worchestershire, and lemon juice. Garlic and/or onion go nicely too.

Recipes are easy to find on the net; cooks.com, for instance, has a recipe for hollandaise at http://www.cooks.com/rec/search/0,1-0,hollandaise_sauce,FF.html
