Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Wash, peel and grate the potatoes. Wrap the resulting mass in paper towels and squeeze vigorously. Transfer to dry towels, wrap and put in a bowl. Cook in the microwave for 2-3 minutes at full power. Let stand for a minute.

Step 2

Step 2
Fry the bacon in a dry frying pan until crispy. This can be done over low heat, rendering the fat and browning at the same time, and placing the bacon in the pan while it is still cold. Remove the bacon from the pan, cool slightly and cut into small cubes. It is better to take a frying pan with a removable handle so that you can continue cooking in the oven.

Step 3

Step 3
Place the prepared potatoes in a frying pan with the melted fat, do not stir for about 3 minutes, let them set over medium heat, then stir. Wash the sweet peppers, remove the stem and core with seeds. Cut into small cubes and add to the potatoes. Fry for 3 minutes without disturbing, then stir again.

Step 4

Step 4
Salt, pepper and add chopped bacon. Fry, stirring occasionally for another six minutes.

Step 5

Step 5
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Transfer the mixture into a wide baking dish, if required, or simply level it with a spatula, lightly compacting it. Then make holes with a spoon (according to the number of servings) and break the eggs into them, being careful not to damage the yolk. Grate the cheese and sprinkle the potatoes around the eggs.

Step 6

Step 6
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the whites have hardened and the cheese has melted. Sprinkle the finished dish with chopped herbs.
