    Soft-poached eggs with hash browns and crispy bacon

    Serves: 4
    Cooking Time: 10 mins

    Ingredients

    • HASH BROWNS
    • 1 large egg, beaten
    • 4 potatoes, peeled, coarsely grated and squeezed
    • ½ small onion, grated and squeezed
    • salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    • vegetable oil, for frying
    • 6 large soft-poached eggs
    • crispy streaky bacon, to serve
    • fresh rocket, to serve
    • sweet chilli sauce, to serve

    Instructions

    1

    For the hash browns, combine all of the ingredients, except for the oil, in a large bowl and season well.

    2

    Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add spoonfuls of the potato mixture to the pan and flatten with the back of a spoon.

    3

    Fry until golden and crisp, about 2 – 3 minutes on each side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.

    4

    To serve, place the hash browns on a serving platter, top with a soft poached egg, crispy streaky bacon and lots of fresh rocket.

    5

    Serve with sweet chilli sauce on the side.

    Notes

    I enjoy spicy food and the sweet chilli adds just a touch. For those who prefer more of a bite, add some chopped fresh red chilli to the mix for a fresh, spicy flavour burst.
