Baked stuffed potato with egg

Baked stuffed potato with egg

Baked stuffed potato with egg on top is that kind of dish few could refuse not to mention that is 

easy to make, healthy and so tasty. A perfect recipe for breakfast or brunch. 

Ingredients:

Makes 4 servings

2 medium/large potatoes
1 medium yellow onion, diced
4 small eggs
3 or 4 cloves of garlic, chopped fine
4 oz. (100 g) cheese, grated
2 tbsp olive oil or 1 tbsp butter
Fresh chives, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions 

1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Scrub potatoes, pierce them with a fork and put them in the oven rack for 30-40 minutes until soft. 

2. In a large frying pan heat oil or butter over medium high heat. Saute the onion with garlic for about 5 minutes until soft. 

3. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle cut potatoes in half lengthwise, scoop the interior out of each leaving about 1/4 inch shell of potato flesh and skin. Add the scooped-out potato flesh, grated cheese, salt and pepper into the pan and stir well to combine. 

4. Place the potato shells on the baking sheet and feel them with the mixture. Press the mixture with a spoon so a whole is formed to make space for the eggs. Sprinkle chives on top and crack an egg on top of each stuffed potato. 

5. Cook at 200°C (400°F) for 10-15 minutes until the egg is set. The whites are set while the yolks are a bit runny. Enjoy!
