Ingredients

Potato200 g
Parboiled first. Raw diced potato takes twenty-five minutes in a pan and burns before it softens. Raw, peeled weight.
Bacon medallions80 g
Weighed raw. Back bacon with the fat on is about double.
Onion60 g
Red pepper80 g
Egg1 large (55 g)
Olive oil5 g
Smoked paprikaHalf a teaspoon
SaltTo taste
Black pepperTo taste

Method

Dice the potato into 1 cm pieces and boil for six minutes, then drain and let it steam dry.
Fry the potato in the oil over medium-high heat for eight minutes, turning only occasionally so it browns.
Add the diced bacon, onion and pepper with the paprika and cook for another five minutes until the onion is soft and the bacon has coloured.
Make a hollow in the middle, crack in the egg, cover and cook for three minutes until the white sets.

Worth knowing

Steam-dry the potato before it goes in the pan. Wet potato boils in the oil and never crisps.
Five grams of oil for 200 g of potato works in a non-stick pan. It is the only added fat, and the medallions bring very little of their own.
