Yes! You can prepare the boxty pancakes a day in advance and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat them in a toaster or a 350°F (175°C) oven until warm and crisp. The hollandaise and poached eggs should be made fresh just before serving for the best results.
If your sauce separates, don't worry! Remove it from the heat immediately. In a clean bowl, whisk one teaspoon of hot water. Then, very slowly, drizzle the broken sauce into the water while whisking constantly. This should bring it back together into a smooth emulsion.
This dish is quite rich on its own, so a simple side is best. A light green salad with a vinaigrette, some fresh fruit, or simple steamed asparagus would be excellent accompaniments to balance the richness.
