Soft Boiled Eggs With Crispy Potato Soldiers Recipes

SOFT BOILED EGGS WITH CRISPY POTATO SOLDIERS

Steps:

• Fill up a large pot halfway with peanut oil and place over medium heat. Bring a small pot of water to a rolling boil. Cut the potato into long strips like French fries.
• Gently add the eggs to the boiling water and cook for 6 minutes. Drain and run the eggs under cold running water to stop the cooking process.
• When bubbles start to form in the peanut oil, drop in the potato strips and cook until golden brown. Lift the potatoes out of the oil and drain on a tray lined with paper towels. Toss them in a large bowl with the parsley and garlic with a pair of tongs. Add some sea salt and smoked paprika and continue to toss.
• Place the eggs in egg cups (with the large ends in) and arrange the fries on a small plate on the side. Tap the tops of the eggs and peel away the shells. Cut away the tops of the egg whites. Sprinkle with sea salt and pepper. Dip the fries into the yolks!

MARTHA'S SOFT-BOILED EGGS

Steps:

• Place eggs in a saucepan large enough to accommodate them in a single layer. Fill the pan with cold water, covering eggs by an inch. Set over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. Turn off heat, cover, and let stand 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Remove eggs from water. Serve immediately in egg cups -- perfect for cracking and scooping the egg right from the shell. Season with salt and pepper.

CRISPY BREAKFAST POTATOES WITH CHILI GARLIC OIL AND HERBS.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. 2. On a large baking sheet, toss together the olive oil, potatoes, lemon zest, parmesan, and a small pinch each of salt and pepper. Lay the bacon flat, draped over the potatoes. Transfer to the oven and roast for 20 minutes, toss and continue roasting another 20-25 minutes, or until golden and the bacon crisp. If the bacon begins getting too crisp before the potatoes are done, remove the bacon from the oven. 3. Meanwhile, make the garlic chili oil. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil, garlic, chili flakes, and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally until the garlic is fragrant, 8-10 minutes. Stir in the basil, cook 30 seconds more. Remove from the heat and set aside. 4. Remove the potatoes and bacon from the oven and transfer to a serving plate, draining off any excess grease. Arrange the eggs over the potatoes. Drizzle with garlic chili oil and finish with fresh dill and chives. Serve warm.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH CONGEE WITH CRISPY SHALLOTS AND SOFT-BOILED EGGS

Steps:

• Put the rice in a medium bowl and cover with water; drain. Repeat twice; drain well in a fine-mesh sieve. (This will help remove some of the starch.) Transfer the rinsed rice back to the bowl and add 1 1/2 tablespoons salt with 1 teaspoon of the vegetable oil. Mix well with your hand or a rubber spatula and let sit for five minutes.
• Meanwhile, pulse the butternut squash in a food processor until finely chopped. (If you are using a mini food processor, do this in batches.) Set aside.
• Rinse the rice twice with cold water to remove the excess salt, then drain and transfer to a medium nonstick saucepan. Add the broth and butternut squash. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a medium-low simmer. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, until the consistency resembles oatmeal and the butternut squash is completely soft, bright orange and incorporated into the congee, about 30 minutes. Add the white pepper and season with salt.
• While the congee cooks, placed the eggs in a small saucepan, cover with cold water and add the vinegar. Bring to a boil, cover and remove from the heat. Let sit for 5 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water; peel, then halve each egg lengthwise. Set aside.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a small skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the shallots and gently fry, stirring, until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. Lightly sprinkle with salt.
• Divide the congee among 4 shallow bowls. Top each with 2 egg halves. Garnish the congee with the ginger, scallions, cilantro and crispy shallots. Drizzle with sesame oil, if desired. Enjoy while warm.
