Smashed Sweet Potato Rosti with Butter Poached Egg

Yield: 2
Author: Nikki Miller-Ka of Nik Snacks
Sweet potatoes are some of my favorite tubers, so why not grate some up, crisp them in a pan and top it with an egg? Put an egg on ANYTHING and it automatically becomes brunch. Fruit salad? Add an egg. Nachos? Add an egg. Grandma's chocolate cake? Add an egg. I mean, the possibilities are endless!

Ingredients

Butter Poached Eggs
  • 2 cups clarified butter
  • Two eggs
Sweet Potato Rosti
  • 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided 
  • 2 cups packed coarsely grated sweet potato (from about 2 medium-sized potatoes, skin-on) 
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

Butter Poached Eggs
  1. Heat clarified butter in small saucepan over medium low heat. While butter is heating, crack eggs into two individual ramekins. When butter is hot enough, slide eggs one at a time into butter. Do this slowly so the egg doesn’t spider out.
  2. Remove pan from heat and let the eggs cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the yolk is slightly white on top for a runny yolk. Cook a couple of minutes longer for a more cooked yolk.
  3. Using a slotted spoon, remove eggs from butter and plate. If you’re cooking more than two eggs, use this chance to reheat the butter and add eggs until desired amount is reached.
Sweet Potato Rosti
  1. Heat about 1/2 Tbsp of the oil over medium-low heat in a 10-inch nonstick-skillet. Place the grated sweet potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
  2. Add potatoes to hot pan, pressing on them with a spatula to form a flat surface. Cook until bottom of cake is golden and crisp, 12-15 minutes. Place a salad plate (small enough to fit into the skillet) into pan and invert potato rösti onto plate. Add remaining oil to hot pan and slide rösti back in.
  3. Continue to cook until golden on remaining side, 10-12 minutes longer. Reduce heat to low and continue to cook until cake bottom is crisp, about 2 minutes longer. Season generously with salt and pepper; cut into wedges, top with poached egg and serve.
