Eggs and home fries have a special place in my heart as a breakfast food. Its my breakfast/lunch at lease a once a week. Goes great with hot sauce too :)

The recipe in the picture is loosely based on Adam Regusea's home fries recipe. Main difference is that I don't parboil the potatoes. I prefer to cook the potatoes from raw, i prefer the final texture more that way.

I do this on the weekend, in fact, just did very similar today. I can give two tips:

If you microwave potatoes first (poke holes) to par-cook them, then you just need to get them crispy. I usually don't, and just start with potatoes at medium in before the oil has really heated , stirring every 5 minutes for the first 20 or so, then more often when they get to crisping. The best is definitely using leftover baked potatoes or roasted potatoes from the night before.

Second, if you have an air fryer, that's increasingly my go to. We have a basket style, I coat in a little oil or use veg spray, and roast around 350 for 10-15, and then turn it up to 400 once the potatoes are tender for color.

Neither of these are weekdays for me, but I can throw this together on weekends where I mostly don't have to do anything.
