Eggs

Grits or Hash Browns

Method

Preparing the Eggs

  1. 1

    Cook the Eggs

    In a non-stick skillet, heat the butter or oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Cook to your desired doneness (sunny-side up, over-easy, scrambled, etc.), about 3-5 minutes.

Preparing the Grits

  1. 2

    Cook the Grits

    In a saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Stir in the grits and salt, reduce heat to low, and cover. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened. Stir in butter before serving.

Preparing the Hash Browns

  1. 3

    Cook the Hash Browns

    Peel and grate the potatoes. Finely chop the onion. In a skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté until translucent. Add the grated potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and flatten into an even layer. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
