Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Potatoes (medium-sized)
- 4 pieces Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes, approximately 1/2-inch in size.
Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Add the potato cubes to the skillet and cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in 1 tablespoon of butter to give the potatoes a rich flavor.
Season the potatoes with salt, black pepper, paprika, and dried oregano, mixing well to coat all the pieces evenly.
Make four small wells in the potatoes using a spoon and crack an egg into each well.
Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny (cook longer if you prefer firmer yolks).
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for garnish, if desired.
Serve the Turkish Potatoes and Eggs immediately, either straight from the skillet or plated. Enjoy with crusty bread or a side of fresh vegetables for a complete meal.
