Ingredients

Basic math is 1 egg and 1 large or 2 medium potatoes for each generous serving

Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Fresh dill weed, chopped semi-coarsely

Cooking oil

Butter

Several "gawkers" below mentioned onions. By all means, add some! I'd toss them in at the same time as the potatoes, so that they caramelize well. Yum yum.

Directions

Peel and julienne potatoes. I slice them 4 times lengthwise, and then cut across to get a "French fry" cut.

Beat the eggs and set aside

Heat about 4 tbsp cooking oil in a deep skillet. If you like crispier fries, use just oil, if you like them softer, add some butter to it.

Toss the potatoes in the oil and fry, shaking or stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes.

Add salt, pepper and dill weed

Cook another 5 minutes or so until potatoes are almost done.

Pour the eggs over the potatoes and stir well once

Cover and cook for another couple of minutes until eggs are firm enough to eat. I like them slightly runny, but it's totally up to you.

Oh Yeah! Wonderful! I do this very often. Being quite carnivorous, I start pork sausage with the spuds, chop up the meat before the eggs go in. Two slices of jellied toast on the side are a must.
I have fond memories of snowmobiling with my dad in the '70's. We'd tromp through the snow to his cabin and steam up the cold windows with this wonderful dish.
Great post.

Thanks, crainny! I have never had luck getting tender yet browned potatoes in combination with other food in the skillet. I will try your recipe this weekend.
