Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch ovenproof omelet pan over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook for 3 to 5 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is browned but not crisp. Take the bacon out of the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside on a plate.
- Place the potatoes in the pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Continue to cook over medium-low heat for 8 to 10 minutes, until very tender and browned, tossing occasionally to brown evenly. Remove with a slotted spoon to the same plate with the bacon.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, beat the eggs, milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together with a fork. After the potatoes are removed, pour the fat out of the pan and discard. Add the butter, lower the heat to low, and pour the eggs into the hot pan. Sprinkle the bacon, potatoes, and chives evenly over the top and place the pan in the oven for about 8 minutes, just until the eggs are set. Slide onto a plate, divide in half, and serve hot.

ROASTED FRENCH-STYLE POTATOES
Something a little different from the usual oven fries. I first had these at a tiny restaurant in Montreal and really wanted to replicate their recipe; it's not exactly the same but fairly close. I hope that you enjoy them as much as I do.

Steps:
- In a pot with a steamer insert, steam the potatoes until tender, about 15 minutes. (The potatoes can also be cooked in boiling salted water for the same amount of time.) Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
- In a pot of boiling water, blanch the leeks for 30 seconds, or until tender. Rinse in cold water and drain. Set aside.
- Cut the roasted peppers in 1/2 crosswise and then cut them into 1/2-inch slices.
- Cut each potato into 8 pieces. In a medium bowl, mix the potatoes, leeks, peppers, thyme, and tarragon. In a separate bowl, stir together the Champagne vinaigrette with the mustard. Drizzle the vinaigrette on the potato salad and toss gently until the vinaigrette coats the salad evenly. Season with the salt and pepper and toss again.
- In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar and salt together until the salt dissolves. Slowly whisk in the oil until the dressing is well blended. Season with pepper, to taste.

Steps:
- In a large skillet over med-high heat, melt the butter with 1 tablespoon oil.
- Add in potatoes; cook, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes, until lightly browned.
- Decrease heat to medium; add in red and green onions, salt, pepper, and paprika to taste; cook until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes; add more oil if needed.
- Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes like Yukon Golds or New Potatoes hold their shape better during cooking, making them ideal for this dish. Russet potatoes can also be used, but they may fall apart more easily.
- Use flavorful ingredients: The combination of garlic, herbs, and cheese adds a ton of flavor to this dish. Feel free to experiment with different herbs and cheeses to find your favorite combination.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure to give the potatoes enough space in the pan so that they can brown evenly. If the pan is too crowded, the potatoes will steam instead of brown.
- Cook the potatoes until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a nice crispy exterior.
- Serve immediately: French Country Potatoes are best served hot out of the oven. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
French Country Potatoes are a classic side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make, flavorful, and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are serving them at a weeknight dinner or a special holiday meal, these potatoes are sure to be a hit.
