Eggs & Garnish

Method

Home Fries

1

parboil potatoes

Place diced potatoes in a medium pot, cover with cold water, add a pinch of salt, bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes until just tender but not falling apart. Drain well and let steam-dry for 2 minutes.

2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil. When shimmering, add parboiled potatoes in a single layer. Cook undisturbed 4–5 minutes to develop a golden crust.

3

Add diced onion, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium and toss/turn potatoes occasionally until onions are softened and potatoes are crisp-tender, about 6–8 minutes total. Transfer to a warm bowl and keep warm.

Sausage Gravy

4

In a separate skillet over medium heat, brown the breakfast sausage, breaking it up with a spatula, until no longer pink and rendered, about 6 minutes.

5

Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and stir to coat; cook 1 minute to remove raw flour taste.

6

Slowly pour in the milk while stirring to combine and avoid lumps. Bring to a gentle simmer; the gravy will thicken in 3–5 minutes. Season with black pepper and salt. If gravy becomes too thick, add up to 2 tbsp additional milk to reach desired consistency. Keep warm on very low heat.

Pico & Cheese

7

Combine diced tomato, minced jalapeño, red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice and 1/8 tsp salt in a small bowl. Taste and adjust salt or lime as needed. Set aside to let flavors marry.

8

Measure shredded cheddar and keep ready to sprinkle over bowl.

Eggs & Toast

9

While gravy finishes, toast the bread to desired doneness and spread 1/2 tbsp butter on the hot toast. Keep warm.

10

cook eggs

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add 1 tbsp butter. Crack eggs into the pan and cook to desired doneness: for sunny-side-up, cook gently until whites are set but yolks still runny, 3–4 minutes; for over-easy, cook until whites set then flip and cook 15–30 seconds. Season with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper.

Assembly

11

In a medium shallow bowl, place the warm home fries as the base (about half the bowl). Arrange the two eggs over the fries.

12

Ladle 1/3 to 1/2 cup of warm sausage gravy over the fries and around the eggs (reserve extra gravy for service if desired).

13

Sprinkle 1/4–1/2 cup shredded cheddar over the hot gravy and potatoes so it softens and melts.

14

Top with 2–3 tablespoons pico de gallo and a small pinch of chopped cilantro for color.

15

Serve immediately with the buttered toast on the side.
