Steps

1

Prepare Potatoes

Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly thick sticks. Wash them thoroughly in cold water, then pat them dry with kitchen paper towels to ensure they become crispy when fried.

2

Fry Potatoes

In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 170-180°C (340-350°F). Fry the potatoes in small batches for 8-10 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove from oil, drain, and season with salt to taste.

3

Fry Eggs

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Carefully crack the eggs into the pan, making sure the yolks remain intact. Fry for 2-3 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4

Serve

Divide the freshly fried potatoes among plates, then place 2 fried eggs on top of each serving. Serve immediately while hot and crispy!

Extra Tips

For perfectly crispy fries, soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes, then dry them thoroughly before frying.

If you like spicier flavors, sprinkle a pinch of paprika or garlic powder on your french fries.

The egg yolk is best when runny, but if you prefer it firmer, cook it longer until fully set.
