Two Potatoes & Two Eggs! Quick Recipe Perfect For Breakfast

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

1. Start by peeling the potatoes (if desired) and cutting them into small, even cubes. The smaller the cubes, the faster they will cook and become crispy.
2. Rinse the potatoes under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with a towel to ensure they crisp up nicely in the pan.

Step 2: Cook the Potatoes

1. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
2. Add the diced potatoes to the skillet in a single layer. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika (if using) to taste.
3. Let the potatoes cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they’re golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. If needed, reduce the heat to medium-low to avoid burning them before they’re fully cooked.

Step 3: Cook the Eggs

1. Once the potatoes are cooked to your liking, create two small wells in the pan.
2. Crack one egg into each well, being careful not to break the yolks. Season the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
3. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the egg whites are set, but the yolks are still runny. If you prefer your eggs cooked more through, cook them for an additional minute or two.

Step 4: Serve and Garnish

1. Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, remove the skillet from the heat.
2. Serve the potatoes and eggs hot, and garnish with fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, or thyme for a pop of color and flavor.
3. If desired, add a drizzle of hot sauce or a dollop of ketchup on the side for a tangy kick.

Serving Suggestions:

• Serve your two potatoes and two eggs with a side of toasted bread or a slice of avocado for added richness.
• Pair the dish with a fresh fruit salad or a smoothie to add a touch of sweetness and balance out the meal.

Tips and Variations:

• Add Veggies: You can easily make this dish more colorful and nutritious by adding veggies like onions, bell peppers, spinach, or mushrooms to the potatoes as they cook.
• Cheese: Top your eggs with a sprinkle of shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or feta) for extra flavor and creaminess.
• Spicy Twist: Spice things up by adding diced jalapeños or a sprinkle of chili flakes to the potatoes while they cook.
