Kitchen know-how
Tips for Leberkäse with fried egg
Fry over medium heat.
Leberkäse is already cooked and only needs to be hot and golden brown. Too high heat burns the surface before the centre is pleasantly warm.
Prepare fried eggs separately
Fry the eggs in butter over a moderate heat and serve them first. In this way, liquid egg yolks and browned Leberkäse can be controlled independently.
Variations
How to adapt this recipe
Serve fried slices in crispy rolls with sweet mustard and slices of cucumber. No potato salad and fried egg in this quick version.
Cut two onions into rings and fry slowly until golden brown. Spread on Leberkäse and fried egg, using the sweet mustard a little more sparingly.

Frequently asked questions
FAQ about Leberkäse with fried egg
Bavarian Leberkäse usually contains no liver, although the name suggests otherwise. Regional products and legal names may differ, however.
Raw roast meat must be baked completely as a whole loaf according to the manufacturer's instructions. This pan recipe requires already cooked sliced Leberkäse.
At medium heat, three to four minutes per side are usually sufficient. The exact time depends on the thickness and starting temperature of the panes.
Potato salad, pan-fried potatoes or a pretzel are classic accompaniments. Sweet mustard and pickled cucumber bring the necessary pungency and acidity.
