Fried Eggs With Rosemary Sautéed Potatoes Recipes

RöSTI WITH FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large saucepan, add cold water to cover, and season generously with salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until the tip of a paring knife slides easily about 1/2" into potatoes, 8-10 minutes. Drain potatoes and let cool. Chill until firm, about 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 300°F. Peel potatoes. Using the large holes of a box grater, grate potatoes. Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a 12" ovenproof skillet over medium-low heat. Add potatoes. Season with salt and pepper; press gently to compact. Cook, occasionally shaking pan to loosen, until bottom is golden brown and crisp, 15-20 minutes.
• Slide rösti onto a plate. Carefully invert skillet over plate and flip to return rösti to pan, browned side up. Dot 1 tablespoon butter around edge, allowing it to melt around and under rösti. Season with salt and pepper and cook until second side is golden brown and center is tender, 10-15 minutes longer.
• Top rösti with cheese and bake until cheese melts, 5-8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Crack eggs into skillet and cook until whites are just set, about 4 minutes.
• Cut rösti into quarters, top with eggs, and garnish with parsley.

SAUTé POTATOES WITH SEA SALT & ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Put the whole unpeeled potatoes in a pan of water. Bring to the boil and cook for 15 mins. Drain and leave to cool. Can be done several hours ahead.
• When ready to serve, strip the skins from the potatoes, then cut them into thick slices. Heat the oils together in a very large non-stick frying pan. Add the potatoes in a single layer if there is room, and cook for 10-15 mins, tuning them frequently with a fish slice until they are golden and crispy. Sprinkle with the rosemary and flaky salt, then serve.

ROSEMARY POTATOES AND EGGS

Steps:

• Peel and dice potatoes into small bite-sized pieces (the smaller the pieces, the faster they'll cook).
• Put butter in a frying pan and set to medium-high heat.
• Add potatoes and seasonings and fry until a little brown around the edges. (maybe 5 minutes).
• Set heat to low, cover, and let it sit for about 5 minutes to finish cooking potatoes. Add more butter if it looks dry.
• Move potatoes to the sides of the pan, turn the heat up to medium-high, and crack eggs into the center. Scramble them with your spatula until done. (maybe 5 minutes).
• Mix the eggs and potatoes together and serve.

SMASHED POTATOES WITH EGGS AND ROSEMARY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Boil potatoes in salted water with 1 sprig of the rosemary and 2 cloves of garlic until tender. Drain potatoes and discard rosemary and garlic. Place potatoes on a cutting board and use the side of a cleaver or the bottom of a pot to lightly crush them, keeping them as intact as possible.
• Strip leaves from remaining rosemary sprig and chop. Mince remaining garlic clove. Place in a dish with lemon juice and zest and whisk in olive oil and chile flakes. Season with salt. Heat oven to 200 degrees. Line a small baking sheet with a couple of layers of paper towels.
• Heat grape seed or canola oil on medium-high to a depth of 1/2 inch in a skillet large enough to hold potatoes in a single layer (a 10-inch skillet should work). When oil is hot, add smashed potatoes and fry, turning once, until golden brown and crusty. Season with salt, transfer to baking sheet and place in the oven.
• Bring an inch or so of water to a simmer in a shallow 2-quart saucepan. Add vinegar. Break an egg into a teacup and slip the egg out of the cup and into the water. Repeat with second egg. (And with two more eggs if you desire.) Simmer until just set, about 3 minutes. Divide potatoes between two warm plates, give the vinaigrette another whisking and drizzle about half of it over the potatoes. Use a slotted spoon to lift eggs from the water and place onto the potatoes. Drizzle eggs with the rest of the vinaigrette and serve.
