Home Fries

Method

Preparing Home Fries

  1. 1

    Cook the Potatoes

    Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender.

  2. 2

    Add Onion and Seasoning

    While the potatoes are cooking, finely chop the onion. Add the chopped onion to the skillet with the potatoes. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, until the onion is translucent and the potatoes are fully cooked.

Cooking Eggs and Meat

  1. 3

    Cook the Meat

    In a separate skillet, cook the bacon or sausage over medium heat until crispy. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 4

    Fry the Eggs

    In the same skillet used for the meat, crack the eggs and cook them to your desired doneness (sunny side up, over easy, etc.). This should take about 2-4 minutes.

Toasting Bread

  1. 5

    Toast the Bread

    While the eggs are cooking, toast the slices of bread. Once toasted, spread butter on top of each slice.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Breakfast

    On a plate, arrange the home fries, place the cooked eggs on top, add the meat on the side, and serve with the buttered toast.
