Ingredients

  • 7 Eggs
  • 1 Potato
  • 1/2 Onion finely diced
  • 5 strips bacon
  • 4 oz Cheddar cheese grated
  • 3/4 Cup heavy cream
  • Small bunch fresh chopped freshly chopped parsley
  • 1 Teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 Teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 1/2 Teaspoon paprika
  • 1 Teaspoon olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease 12 medium muffin holders and set aside.
  • Peel, wash and grate the potato. Wash the grated potato and squeeze out excess water by putting it in a clean tea towel and squeezing the water out.
  • In a medium skillet set over medium to high heat, add the olive oil and onion. Sautee for about 5 minutes and add the grated potato. Give a really good stir and cook for about 8 minutes until the potatoes are pretty cooked and slightly golden. Remove from heat.
  • Cook the bacon until slightly crispy. Drain on paper towels and crumble or chop the bacon up.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the cream and continue to whisk until smooth. Stir in salt, pepper, paprika and chopped parsley.
  • Place a tablespoon of the potato mixture in each muffin holder. Press it down. Sprinkle over the bacon and then the cheese. Pour over egg mixture. Repeat for all muffin holders.
  • Bake or about 15 minute or until golden and puffed.
  • Remove from oven and place tray on a wire rack to cool for about 5 minutes before removing.
  • Serve hot or warm.
