Certainly! Here’s a recipe for “Bratkartoffeln mit Wurst und Spiegelei,” a classic German dish of pan-fried potatoes with sausage and a sunny-side-up egg:
Ingredients:
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and sliced into thin rounds
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 German sausages (Wurst), such as Bratwurst or Bockwurst
- 4 eggs
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Potatoes:
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat.
- Add the sliced potatoes and chopped onion to the skillet.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and cooked through. This may take about 15-20 minutes.
- Cook the Sausages:
- In a separate pan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat.
- Add the sausages and cook until browned on all sides and cooked through. The cooking time will depend on the type of sausage you choose.
- Fry the Eggs:
- In the same skillet used for the potatoes, crack the eggs into the pan without breaking the yolks.
- Cook the eggs until the whites are set, and the yolks are still runny. You can cover the pan with a lid for a minute to help set the egg whites while keeping the yolks runny.
- Assemble the Dish:
- Place a portion of the pan-fried potatoes on each plate.
- Top the potatoes with a cooked sausage.
- Carefully place a fried egg on top of each sausage.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
