This is a delicious recipe for breakfast or brunch that has crispy hash browns and perfectly poached eggs on top. Your taste buds will be happy with the way the textures and flavors work together.
Ingredients: 4 large eggs. 2 russet potatoes, peeled and grated. 1/2 onion, finely chopped. 2 tablespoons olive oil. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. 1/4 teaspoon paprika. 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper. 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley for garnish.
Instructions: Start by preparing the hash browns. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and saut until translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Add the grated potatoes to the skillet, spreading them out evenly. Season with salt, black pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Cook without stirring for about 5-7 minutes or until the bottom layer is crispy and golden brown. Flip the hash browns over using a spatula, and cook the other side for an additional 5-7 minutes until crispy and golden brown. Remove from the skillet and keep warm. Fill a large saucepan with water and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add a splash of white vinegar to the simmering water. The vinegar will help the egg whites coagulate faster when poaching. Crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin, being careful not to break the yolks. Create a gentle whirlpool in the simmering water by stirring it with a spoon. Carefully slide one egg into the center of the whirlpool. Poach for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk, or longer for a firmer yolk. Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the poached egg from the water and place it on a paper towel to drain excess water. Repeat the poaching process with the remaining eggs. To serve, place a generous portion of the crispy hash browns on each plate. Top with a perfectly poached egg. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper. Enjoy your Perfect Poached Eggs Over Double Hatch Hash Browns!
