SCRAMBLED EGGS IN POTATO SHELLS



Scrambled Eggs In Potato Shells image

Provided by Craig Claiborne And Pierre Franey

Categories     breakfast, main course

Time 1h15m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 oval-shaped potatoes, about 1/2-pound each
3 tablespoons, plus 2 teaspoons, butter
Salt to taste, if desired
8 tablespoons fresh or canned chicken broth
4 eggs
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
4 teaspoons caviar or 12 chive stems, each about 3 inches in length

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Peel the potatoes, trimming them to make each as smooth and oval as an egg. As the potatoes are prepared, drop each into cold water to cover to prevent discoloration. Cut off a small slice from the top and bottom of each ''egg.'' Reserve four of the cut-off slices. Using a melon-ball cutter, start at one end of each potato and scoop out the inner flesh to make a cavity for filling with scrambled eggs. The outer and bottom of each shell should be about a quarter-inch thick.
  • Melt one tablespoon of butter in a heat-proof saucepan and arrange the potatoes hollowed-out side up in the saucepan. Arrange the four reserved cut-off pieces around the potatoes. Sprinkle the inside of each potato with salt. Add one-half teaspoon of butter to the center of each potato. Spoon one tablespoon of broth inside each potato. Pour the remaining four tablespoons of broth around the potatoes.
  • Cover closely with foil and place in the oven. Bake about 35 minutes. As the potatoes cook, test them often by piercing them with a small pointer. When ready, the potatoes should be tender, but not overcooked, or they may collapse.
  • Break the eggs into a mixing bowl. There should be about one cup. Add salt and pepper to taste and beat thoroughly.
  • Heat the remaining two tablespoons of butter in a saucepan and cook over very low heat or, preferably, on a metal flame guard. Add the eggs and cook, stirring briskly with a wire whisk, about five minutes, or until they have the consistency of a thick custard. Off the heat, beat in the cream and the chives.
  • Meanwhile, drain the liquid from the potatoes into a saucepan. Bring the liquid to the boil and cook until reduced to about two tablespoons. Brush the outside of the potatoes with this buttery liquid.
  • Arrange each potato on a small serving dish and use a small spoon to fill the cavities of each with an equal portion of the scrambled eggs. Garnish each serving with a topping of one teaspoon of caviar or with three chive stems inserted into the eggs. Arrange the reserved cut-off portions on the plate or neatly place them on top.

Categories     side dish

Time 35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
2 small hot green chilies, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 small onions, finely sliced
2 large russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/8-inch-thick slices
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
8 large eggs

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the cumin seeds and sizzle them for a minute. Add the chilies and garlic and sauté for a minute or 2. Add the onions and sauté until translucent, then add the potato slices. Sprinkle with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes, making sure the potatoes do not brown.
  • Level the mixture, add enough water to come just below the top of the potatoes, cover and cook over low heat until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro and season with salt. Stir and then level mixture again.
  • Use an egg to make 8 indentations. Break an egg into each. Cover and cook on low heat until the eggs are done, about 5 minutes for runny yolks.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For best results, use a starchy potato like Russet or Yukon Gold. These potatoes will hold their shape well and become fluffy when baked.
  • Scrub the potatoes well: Before baking, scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris. This will help the potatoes cook evenly.
  • Prick the potatoes: Use a fork to prick the potatoes all over. This will help the steam escape and prevent the potatoes from bursting.
  • Bake the potatoes until tender: Bake the potatoes at 400°F for about 1 hour, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Let the potatoes cool slightly: Once the potatoes are done baking, let them cool slightly before handling them. This will help prevent the potatoes from breaking apart.
  • Scoop out the potato flesh: Use a spoon to scoop out the potato flesh, leaving a thin shell. Be careful not to break the potato shells.
  • Fill the potato shells with eggs: Crack an egg into each potato shell. You can also add other ingredients to the eggs, such as cheese, bacon, or vegetables.
  • Bake the potatoes again: Bake the potatoes again at 400°F for about 15 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your liking.
  • Serve the potatoes: Serve the potatoes immediately, while they are still hot. You can garnish them with chopped parsley or chives.

Conclusion:

Eggs baked in potatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a meal that the whole family will enjoy.
