1
Prepare the Homefries
Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes, salt, and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender, about 15-20 minutes.
2
Cook the Eggs
In a separate non-stick skillet, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook to your desired doneness (sunny side up, over easy, etc.), about 2-4 minutes.
3
Toast the Bread
Meanwhile, toast the slices of bread or English muffin until golden brown.
4
Serve
On a plate, serve the homefries alongside the eggs. Add the toasted bread on the side, and enjoy your classic egg breakfast!
