Simple and Convenient

This recipe can easily be adapted for larger and smaller groups of people. Simply use more potatoes and more eggs depending on the size of your pan and the number of people eating.
Ingredients:
- 6 Eggs
- Bacon (1 rasher)
- Potato (3 medium waxy potatoes)
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1 tsp of harissa chilli paste
- 1 tbsp of Olive oil
- 20g chives
- ½ tsp paprika
- ½ tsp chilli flakes
- 20g parsley (roughly chopped)
Method:
Step one
Dice the bacon and garlic and fry in a large oven proof pan, preferably one that has a lid. Add the garlic when the bacon is nearly cooked being careful not to burn it. Turn the heat off when the bacon is well browned and crispy.
Step Two
Chop or grate potatoes and add spices, fried bacon and garlic. Make sure the potato mixture is well combined and that the spices and bacon are spread evenly throughout. Then spread the potato mixture into the pan you used to fry the bacon and bake for 20 minutes at 180 degrees celcius, rotating the tray at the 10-minute mark, or until the potatoes are browned and crispy on top.
Step Three
Remove the mixture from the oven and make 6 wells, or indents, in the mixture with the back of a serving spoon or ladle. Crack an egg into each indent and cover the pan with a lid and return to the oven for another 5-8 minutes depending on how well-done you like your eggs.
Step Four
Remove from oven, season with salt and pepper, olive oil and the roughly chopped fresh parsley. Finish with a generous squeeze of lemon juice.
Serve directly from the pan and enjoy with a slice of toast or just as it is!
