SWISS RöSTI AND POACHED EGGS

Steps:
- Milton's Method
- Scrub the potatoes and place them, with their skins still on, in a large pan filled with cold, salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 10 minutes (they should become slightly more tender but remain firm), then drain and allow them to cool for at least 30 minutes.
- Peel the potatoes, then coarsely grate them into a bowl with a hand grater, adding plenty of seasoning and the minced cloves of garlic. Make sure the garlic and seasoning are evenly distributed.
- Melt the butter and olive oil in a large, non-stick frying pan. When the pan is hot, add the potato. Cook for five minutes over fairly high heat. When the underside begins to turn golden, flip the mixture over (it won't stick together at this stage), then, using a metal slice, divide it into four roughly circular "cakes," about an inch deep, in the pan.
- Press each "cake" down slightly with the slice and cook for a further five minutes on high heat, then flip them over (the potato should now be sticking together) and turn down the heat to low-medium. Cook gently for another 10 minutes on each side, checking occasionally to make sure that the potato does not burn.
- About five minutes before your rösti is ready, heat some salted water in a saucepan with the vinegar, for poaching the eggs. The temperature is right when there are little bubbles slowly rising to the surface; the water should not be boiling vigorously. Break the eggs into the water and cook on low to medium heat for 4-5 minutes for a soft-poached egg.
- Divide the rösti between two plates. Drain the eggs using a slotted spoon, rinse under a little cold water, then drain once more, and place an egg on each rösti. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper and serve.
EGGS IN A NEST
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Spray the inside and lid of a cast-iron Dutch oven with olive oil.
- Scatter the cumin seeds in the pot, followed by the garlic, onion, and bell pepper. Toss in the potato cubes and lightly season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle on the chile.
- Pack in the cabbage. Make four wells in the cabbage, each large enough to hold an egg. Then crack each egg into a well, keeping the yolks intact. It's okay if the eggs leak out of their individual wells slightly. Lay the bread slices on top.
- Cover and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until 3 minutes after the aroma of a fully cooked meal escapes the oven. Serve immediately.

EGGS IN A NEST
Steps:
- Use a 3-inch cookie cutter to cut a shape out of the bread. Melt the butter in a griddle or frying pan. Place the bread in the pan and break an egg into the hole. Lay the cutout shape in the pan wherever it will fit and toast until golden brown. Sprinkle the egg with salt and pepper.
- When the egg is cooked on the bottom and before the bread becomes too brown, flip the egg nest to toast the other side and finish cooking the egg, about 1 minute. Serve with toasted shape.
BUTTER POACHED VEGETABLES
Steps:
- Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the leeks and radishes and cook until slightly softened, about 4 minutes. Add the asparagus and radish tops, if using, along with 1/4 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of pepper and 1/4 cup water. Bring the water to a simmer, then cook, covered, until the asparagus are just barely crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Uncover, increase the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring, until most of the liquid has evaporated and the vegetables are all crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in the tarragon, lemon zest and juice. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:
- If making ahead, prepare an ice-water bath fitted with a sieve; set aside.
- Fill a large straight-sided skillet with 2 inches of water and bring to a boil. Add vinegar and return to a boil. Break one egg into a small heatproof bowl. Placing lip of bowl in the water, gently tip the bowl to slide egg carefully into pan. Use a large slotted spoon to fold the edges of the white over the egg, for a neater edge. Repeat with remaining eggs.
- Cook until whites are just set but the yolks are still soft, they should still move around inside, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Lift out eggs with a slotted spoon or small mesh sieve and briefly rest on bread to allow eggs to drain. Trim edges with a knife for a prettier presentation before serving on toast, if desired, and seasoned with salt and pepper.
- To make ahead, immediately place eggs in an ice-water bath to stop the cooking, then transfer to a bowl of cool water (it should just reach the tops of the eggs). If storing longer than an hour, place bowl in refrigerator (covered) for up to 24 hours. Reheat by briefly placing eggs in a pan of barely simmering water, just until warmed through. Serve on toast, if desired, seasoned with salt and pepper.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment and coat with nonstick cooking spray.
- Coat 4 small bowls with nonstick cooking spray. Separate the eggs and put the whites into a medium bowl and the yolks in the small bowls (1 yolk per bowl). Add a large pinch of salt to the egg whites and beat with an electric mixer on low speed until stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Dollop 4 large spoonfuls of the egg whites onto the prepared baking sheet and make a small well in the middle of each with the back of a spoon. Bake the whites until they are firm, no longer wet and just beginning to turn brown, about 6 minutes. Gently pour 1 yolk into the well of each white. Bake until the edges of the yolk just start to set while still being runny, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt.
- Serve on top of buttered brioche toast.
