This was absolutely delicious and this is what I did.
1. Boil unpeeled potatoes until they are just cooked. Allow them to cool, then peel off the skin and grate them. I did two for me, each about the same size as two eggs.
Then add seasoning (I just added some salt and pepper).
2. Preheat the oven to 180C fan.
Spray oil into a muffin tin. Add some of the potato and using fingers, push it down to line the side and bottom of each hole. Then respray with oil.
3. Bake in oven for about 20 mins (check after 15). Be careful the edges don't burn. Then allow to cool (so all of the above can be done earlier).
4. Reheat oven to 180C. Crack a small egg (because a larger one would be too big) into each 'nest'. Bake for about 10 to 15 mins, until the egg is cooked.
5. Carefully run a knife around the edge to loosen each nest. Lift out. Sprinkle over some sea salt and serve with a salad or maybe veg.
I was going to make just two but there was enough potato for three so there you go! It would be nice with grated cheese on the top too.
Look delicious!hi joy, loving your Blog! Carol.
ReplyDeleteHi and thanks, Carol. They were surprisingly nice and now I've learnt how to make rosti/hash browns, I have another low fat potato method that is really delicious to go with the SW chips/wedges/roasties (but not at the same meal!!).

Wow, it's interesting! I'm going to try it for dinner, children will be happy I think :) Thank you for sharing! Irina.
ReplyDeleteIt's a pleasure. I hope they like it - do let me know. :-) You could always pun in a bit of cooked bacon or ham before the egg, that would be nice too.

The simple recipes are normally the best. I think I'll have a go making this with one twerk. I'll make bubble and squeak for the outside.
ReplyDeleteThat will be lovely! I like recipes that can easily be tweaked.

ReplyDeleteOoooh.... they look lovely (both to eat AND cook). Will try this out with a salad.
Enjoy your afternoon.

I hope you like them as much as I did. I posted a link to the original source in yesterday's entry. They are not my invention!
