Potato with Eggs

(Patatesli Yumurta)

Potato with Eggs
1 cup hash browns, frozen
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, sliced
1 garlic clove, sliced
2 eggs, beaten
Salt
Pepper
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 pinch crushed red pepper (optional)

In a large pan saute the onion with olive oil. Add in the garlic and hash browns (don't defrost), salt and pepper. Cook for about 10 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring constantly. Pour the beaten eggs over the potatoes and lightly stir with a wooden spatula. When the eggs are cooked (don't over-cook) sprinkle parsley and crushed pepper on top. Serve immediately as breakfast or a light meal with Tomato Salad.

* Instead of hash browns, you can use 2 medium sized potatoes. Peel and cut them in cubes and fry in sunflower oil. Then put them on a paper towel to soak up extra oil. Add the fried potatoes and the beaten eggs into the pan at the same time for this dish.

Makes 1 serving.

Today was another day one of your recipe helped me out. I really like your recipes. And by any chance do you have "cayli kek" recipe. That’s a wonderful job you’ve done on this web site.

After looking at this recipe many times, thinking how good it looked and sounded, I finally made it this morning. Mmmm! It was just as good as I thought it would be. I cooked the onions a little longer than you did, perhaps, because they were really carmelized before I added the rest of the ingredients. Amazing how such a simple recipe can taste so good!

hello Binnur
First, I would like to say that your recipes are amazing, they have helped me cook some great dinners that my (Turkish) husband really enjoyed! A question about this recipe, I am unable to get a pre-made frozen hashbrowns. What would you recommend as a substitute? Would just plain diced potatoes be okay?

Merhaba Sarah,
Sure, instead of hash browns, you can use 2 medium sized potatoes. Peel and cut them in cubes and fry in sunflower oil. Then put them on a paper towel to soak up extra oil. Add the fried potatoes and the beaten eggs into the pan at the same time for this dish.
