Cheesy Eggs With Buttery Skillet Potatoes Food

SUNNY'S PERFECT SCRAMBLED CHEESY EGGS

Steps:

• In a large nonstick pan with sloped sides (even a wok shape works), melt the butter over medium-low heat, being careful to not brown the butter. If it begins to bubble, the heat is too high, so lower the heat to cook the eggs properly. (Slow and low like BBQ is the way to go with eggs.)
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, add the eggs and 1 teaspoon cold water. Vigorously whisk until frothy and smooth. Swirl the pan around to coat the butter on the bottom and up the sides. Pour the eggs into the pan and let sit for a few seconds. When the eggs begin to lightly set on the bottom, use the whisk to gently beat the eggs, then allow them to sit for just a few seconds between beating them again. Curds will begin to form and increase throughout the cooking time. Repeat this process of whisking then resting the eggs for a few seconds until about 50 percent of the eggs are set and the rest are still wet. At this point, sprinkle the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper and continue to whisk and rest alternately. Once the eggs are 75 percent done, add the cheese and from this moment, continue to whisk the eggs until done. This entire process from pouring in the eggs to them being finished should take 8 to 12 minutes; this isn't a race, only a journey to the best scrambled eggs ever. Remove from the heat and continue to scramble in the last seconds. Serve warm.

BAKED CHEDDAR EGGS & POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. In a 10-in. cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add potatoes; cook and stir until golden brown and tender. Stir in parsley, garlic, salt and pepper. With the back of a spoon, make 4 wells in the potato mixture; break 2 eggs into each well., Bake until egg whites are completely set and yolks begin to thicken but are not hard, 9-11 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese; bake until cheese is melted, about 1 minute.

CRISPY POTATOES WITH CHEESY EGGS

Steps:

• Put a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of the butter and the oil. Peel and grate the potatoes on the large holes of a box grater or in a food processor. Sprinkle the potatoes well with salt and pepper and toss to coat. When the skillet is hot, add the potatoes, pressing them down and flattening them out to evenly cover the bottom of the skillet. Cook until the potatoes are well browned on the bottom, monitoring the heat as you go so they don't burn. Carefully flip over the pancake, keeping it in one piece, and brown it on the other side. Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate and keep warm.
• While the potatoes are cooking, put a small skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter has melted, add the shallot and cook until it softens. Sprinkle over the flour and cook for a minute or 2. Pour in the cream and bring to a boil. Add the whiskey and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for a few minutes until it thickens a bit. Turn off the heat and add half the cheese. Stir to melt the cheese. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Cover and keep warm.
• In another medium skillet over medium-low heat, add the remaining tablespoon butter. Whisk the eggs well, and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the pan, add the remaining cheese and reduce the heat to low. Cook slowly until the cheese is melted and the eggs are cooked through but soft.
• Place the potato pancake on a serving plate. Top with the cheesy eggs and pour on the sauce. Dollop on the caviar and sprinkle over the chives. Cut into 4 slices and serve.

CHEESY SKILLET POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the cream, garlic, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a medium saucepan over medium heat until bubbles form around the edges, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the sour cream. Pour the cream mixture over the potatoes in the skillet. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. Bake until the potatoes can be easily pierced with a knife, about 45 minutes.
• Uncover and bake until the cheese is browned and the edges are bubbly, about 15 minutes. Broil for 2 minutes, if desired. Remove the skillet from the oven and sprinkle with more chives before serving.
