Best Fried Eggs With Rosemary Sautéed Potatoes Recipes

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.

FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• In a 7- or 8-in. skillet or omelet pan, melt butter over medium heat. Break eggs, 1 at a time, into a custard cup or saucer, then gently slide into the pan. Immediately reduce heat to low. Cook slowly until whites are completely set and yolks begin to thicken. , For eggs sunny-side up, cover pan and cook until yolks thicken, but are not hard. For basted eggs, spoon butter in pan over eggs while cooking. For over-easy eggs, carefully turn eggs to cook both sides but do not cover pan.

FRIED EGG

Steps:

• Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat; add butter. When butter begins to sizzle, crack an egg into pan. Cover, and cook until white is light golden underneath, 2 to 3 minutes. For "over easy," flip egg with spatula and cook for 30 seconds. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately with bacon and toast, if desired.

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.

WARM SPINACH SALAD WITH FRIED EGG AND POTATOES

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add potatoes; season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until potatoes are tender and browned, 12 to 14 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine remaining 2 tablespoons oil with vinegar, mustard, and shallot; season with salt and pepper, and whisk to combine. Add spinach and Parmesan (do not toss); set aside.
• When potatoes are done cooking, immediately transfer to bowl with spinach and dressing (reserve skillet). Toss salad until spinach is slightly wilted, and divide among 4 plates.
• Heat skillet over medium, and gently crack eggs into skillet without breaking yolks; season with salt and pepper. Cook until whites are almost set, about 1 minute. Cover, turn off heat, and let stand until whites are just set but yolks are still soft, about 2 minutes more. Top each salad with a fried egg, and serve immediately.
