  • Bake for 30-35 minutes at 200°C/390°F in a preheated oven or until they become as crispy as you like.
  • In the meantime, cook the eggs to your liking. You can fry, poach or boil them, with runny or firm yolk. I chose runny fried eggs.
  • When the potatoes are fully cooked, place them on a plate, sprinkle with cheese and greens, and place the egg on top.
