Steps:
- Put bacon in large nonstick skillet over medium heat; while fat is rendering, peel and grate potatoes (shredding disk of a food processor works great).
- When bacon is about halfway crisp, spread it evenly in pan, and put potatoes over it; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Press the potatoes down with a plate almost as big as pan, and leave plate in place for about 5 minutes. Remove plate, and continue to cook, undisturbed, so potatoes form a cake, and adjusting heat so potatoes brown without burning. When potatoes are brown, slide cake out onto a plate, invert it onto another plate, and slide it back in, cooked side up.
- Turn on broiler while potatoes brown on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle cheese on potatoes and carefully break eggs into the cheese (if you like softer eggs, put eggs on first, followed by cheese). Broil until cheese melts and eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Serve hot.

[email protected]This recipe was a total disaster. The potatoes were undercooked and the cheese was rubbery. I won't be making this again.

[email protected]This recipe is a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. I added some chopped ham and bell peppers to mine, and it was delicious. The egg and cheese made it a complete meal.

[email protected]Just made this for breakfast and it was a hit! I used turkey bacon to make it a little healthier, and it was still super flavorful. The shredded potatoes were crispy and the cheese was melted and gooey. Definitely a keeper recipe.

[email protected]Yum! This potato cake was so easy to make and so delicious. I used a pre-shredded potato mix to save time, and it still came out perfect. The bacon added a nice smoky flavor. Will definitely make again!

[email protected]This shredded potato cake with egg, cheese, and bacon was an absolute delight! The flavors blended perfectly, and the texture was crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. I added some chopped green onions for an extra pop of flavor. M
