Kitchen know-how

Tips for Farmer's breakfast with fried potatoes

Use cold boiled potatoes in their skins

Potatoes from the previous day are firmer, drier and can be fried in slices without disintegrating immediately. Festcooking varieties are particularly suitable.

Roast potatoes with sufficient space

In a wide pan, the slices form direct contact to the hot ground. Only after strong tanning turn and do not stir constantly.

Slowly allow the eggs to set

After pouring the egg milk, significantly reduce the heat. Thus, the farmer's breakfast remains juicy and does not get a dry, browned egg underside.

Variations

How to adapt this recipe

Leave out bacon and fry mushrooms and spring onions. A little smoked paprika brings a hearty depth.

Cut 150 grams of cooked pork or beef roast small and warm with the browned potatoes. Reduce bacon and salt carefully because of the meat.
