Steps:
- Heat the oil in large nonstick ovenproof or cast iron skillet over medium heat. Fry the potatoes until tender and golden brown. Add the onion and salt and pepper. Continue to cook until the onion is translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs, cheese, parsley, and salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the egg mixture to the potatoes and onions. Cook, shaking the pan and gently moving the mixture from side to side with a rubber spatula as some of the liquid from the top reaches the bottom of the pan.
- Cook until the bottom is set and beginning to brown and the top is still loose, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the eggs by sliding them onto a plate. Then invert and slide the eggs back into the pan, cooked side up. Cook until the eggs are set, 2 to 3 minutes more, shaking the pan often to prevent sticking.
- If you prefer, rather than inverting the eggs, you can place the skillet under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes until the top is set and lightly browned. Unmold onto a plate, cut into wedges, and serve.

Steps:
- Heat 2 Tbsp. oil and 2 Tbsp. butter in a large saucepan over medium. Add garlic, white and pale green parts of leek, and thyme and cook, stirring often, until garlic is softened, about 5 minutes (reduce heat if garlic starts to brown). Add potatoes and 4 cups broth, bring to a simmer, and cook until potatoes are very tender, 25-30 minutes. Let cool slightly, then add crème fraîche.
- Transfer soup to a blender (or use an immersion blender directly in saucepan) and blend until very smooth; season with salt and pepper. Transfer soup back to saucepan and set aside.
- Pour water into another large saucepan to come 4" up sides and bring to a boil, then reduce heat so water is at a gentle simmer. Crack an egg into a small bowl, then gently slide egg into water. Repeat with remaining eggs, waiting until whites are opaque before adding the next one (about 30 seconds apart). Poach until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer eggs to paper towels as they are done; season with salt and pepper.
- Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. butter in a medium saucepan over medium. Add reserved dark green parts of leek and 2 Tbsp. water and cook, stirring often, until leeks are softened and very bright green, about 2 minutes. Transfer leek mixture to a platter and top with parsley leaves and lemon zest.
- Gently reheat reserved soup over medium-low, thinning with more broth if needed; divide among bowls. Carefully place a poached egg and some leek mixture in the center of each bowl of soup and drizzle with oil.
- Do Ahead
- Soup (without eggs and toppings) can be made 2 days ahead; cover and chill. Eggs can be poached 1 day ahead; place in a bowl of ice water, cover, and chill. Reheat gently in simmering water 1 minute just before serving with soup.

Steps:
- Boil potatoes in salted water with 1 sprig of the rosemary and 2 cloves of garlic until tender. Drain potatoes and discard rosemary and garlic. Place potatoes on a cutting board and use the side of a cleaver or the bottom of a pot to lightly crush them, keeping them as intact as possible.
- Strip leaves from remaining rosemary sprig and chop. Mince remaining garlic clove. Place in a dish with lemon juice and zest and whisk in olive oil and chile flakes. Season with salt. Heat oven to 200 degrees. Line a small baking sheet with a couple of layers of paper towels.
- Heat grape seed or canola oil on medium-high to a depth of 1/2 inch in a skillet large enough to hold potatoes in a single layer (a 10-inch skillet should work). When oil is hot, add smashed potatoes and fry, turning once, until golden brown and crusty. Season with salt, transfer to baking sheet and place in the oven.
- Bring an inch or so of water to a simmer in a shallow 2-quart saucepan. Add vinegar. Break an egg into a teacup and slip the egg out of the cup and into the water. Repeat with second egg. (And with two more eggs if you desire.) Simmer until just set, about 3 minutes. Divide potatoes between two warm plates, give the vinaigrette another whisking and drizzle about half of it over the potatoes. Use a slotted spoon to lift eggs from the water and place onto the potatoes. Drizzle eggs with the rest of the vinaigrette and serve.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion, chopped thyme, and crushed red pepper; sprinkle lightly with coarse kosher salt and sauté until onion is tender and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add artichokes and minced garlic; stir 1 minute. Stir in diced tomatoes with juice and bring to boil. Reduce heat; cover skillet and simmer 15 minutes to allow flavors to blend. Meanwhile, cook potatoes in small saucepan of boiling salted water just until tender, about 8 minutes*. Drain. *NOTE: Since the potatoes will continue to cook in the oven, don't overcook them, or they'll become mushy. Add potatoes and capers to tomato-artichoke sauce; cover and simmer 5 minutes. Season to taste with coarse salt and pepper. DO AHEAD Tomato-artichoke sauce can be made up to 6 hours ahead. Cool slightly, then cover and refrigerate. Rewarm sauce before continuing. Preheat oven to 375°F. Pour tomato-artichoke sauce into 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish**. Using back of spoon, make 8 evenly spaced indentations in sauce for holding eggs. Crack 1 egg into each indentation in sauce (some of eggs may run together slightly in spots). Bake until egg whites and yolks are softly set, 12 to 16 minutes**. **My experience is to consider the eggs ready when they are still a little jiggly. They will continue to cook once you remove them from the oven. The shallower your dish and tomato mixture, the quicker the eggs will cook. Carefully remove baking dish from oven; sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over and serve. **I used a cast iron skillet, so I simply put the entire dish into the oven-- no need to pour into a glass dish --OR You can put the vegetables into individual ramekins and store overnight and/or fill with an egg and bake according to directions.

Steps:
- 1. Wash potatoes, peel if you want but you don't have to. Dice up the potatoes, put them in a large skillet, add water and boil until almost tender and the water is almost gone.
- 2. Add olive oil and butter (or margarine) to skillet along with spices and any vegetables (optional). Start browning the potatoes. Dice the ham or cut into odd shapes. Then add the ham. Brown the ham a bit too.
- 3. Break 12 eggs into a bowl. Beat with a fork for about a minute. Add the 4 TBS. of water to the eggs. Beat another minute.
- 4. Slowly pour the eggs over the ham and potato mixture.
- 5. Turn the heat down to medium low. Let the egg mixture on the bottom of the skillet cook a bit. Start moving the eggs and potato mixture around in the pan with a spatula.
- 6. Turn the egg and potato mixture over in sections (like you would a pancake).
- 7. When all of the eggs are cooked, Turn the heat off. *** You may add cheese if desired.
- 8. Serve on a plate or in a bowl. This can be a side dish or the entire meal. *** Great for Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner.
Tips:
- Choose the Right Potatoes: For the best results, select a variety of potatoes that are suitable for roasting, such as Yukon Gold, Russet, or Red Potatoes.
- Cut Potatoes Evenly: Ensure uniform cooking by cutting the potatoes into similar-sized pieces. This will help them cook evenly and prevent some pieces from becoming overcooked while others remain undercooked.
- Season Generously: Don't be shy with the seasonings! A combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika adds classic flavor to the potatoes and eggs. You can also experiment with other herbs and spices to create different flavor profiles.
- Don't Overcrowd the Pan: To achieve crispy potatoes, avoid overcrowding the pan. Give the potatoes enough space to spread out and brown properly.
- Flip the Potatoes: For even browning and to prevent the potatoes from sticking, use a spatula to gently flip them halfway through the cooking process.
- Add the Eggs at the Right Time: Wait until the potatoes are almost fully cooked before adding the eggs. This ensures that the eggs cook through without overcooking the potatoes.
- Use Fresh Eggs: Fresh eggs will give you the best flavor and texture. Look for eggs with bright orange yolks and firm whites.
- Serve Immediately: Potatoes and eggs are best enjoyed hot out of the pan. Serve them immediately with your favorite sides, such as toast, salsa, or avocado slices.
Conclusion:
