Recipe Introduction
This was my first attempt at "elevating" West Virginia cuisine to a higher form. There is nothing better than good, country breakfast food so this seemed a good place to start. It makes a wonderful brunch and the taste is both rustic and refined. It would be welcome on any table in Southern Italy or in Southern West Virginia.
List of Ingredients
- 2 white potatoes, scrubbed with a wire brush and coarsely chopped -- some skin will remain
- 2 red potatoes, scrubbed with a wire brush and coarsely chopped -- some skin will remain
- 2 cippolini onions, coarsely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 oz pancetta (you can substitute a fine, thick local bacon), finely chopped
- salt and pepper to taste
- olive oil
- 4 farm fresh eggs
Instructions
- Toss together potatoes, onions, garlic, pancetta, olive oil and salt and pepper. Add to hot skillet and start frying potatoes to a golden brown. While browing, start the eggs. Plate while the eggs are poaching.
- Perfectly poach the 4 eggs and time them to finish as all the potatoes are plated. Top each plate with 1 poached egg.
- Serve immediately.
