Cook diced potatoes in a skillet with a little oil until tender and browned, then add beaten eggs. Stir gently until the eggs set, and season with salt and pepper. Cutting the potatoes evenly helps them cook at the same rate.
Yes, the potatoes should be tender before you add egg to potatoes sautéed with egg. Cook raw potato pieces in the skillet first, or use already-cooked potatoes for a quicker version. Adding the egg too soon can leave the potatoes undercooked while the egg overcooks.
For crispier potatoes sautéed with egg, use a wide skillet and cook the potatoes in a single layer rather than crowding the pan. Let them brown before turning, and add the egg only after the potato pieces are tender and crisp.
Yes, leftover boiled potatoes work well in potatoes sautéed with egg. Cut them into bite-sized pieces and brown them in a hot skillet before adding the egg. Since they are already cooked, they need less skillet time than raw potatoes.
Waxy or all-purpose potatoes are good choices for potatoes sautéed with egg because they hold their shape as they brown. Cut the potatoes into similar-sized pieces; very large pieces take longer to cook and can leave the egg ready before the centers soften.
Yes, onion is a common addition to potatoes sautéed with egg. Cook sliced onion in the skillet until softened, then add the potatoes so the onion does not burn during the longer cooking time. Chives or scallions can be added just before serving.
Potatoes sautéed with egg pair well with a green salad, sliced tomatoes, or sautéed vegetables. For breakfast, serve them with toast or fruit; for a fuller meal, add a simple salad rather than another heavy side.
Cool leftover potatoes sautéed with egg promptly, transfer them to a covered container, and refrigerate. Eat them within a few days and reheat until steaming hot throughout. Avoid leaving the egg-and-potato dish at room temperature for an extended period.
Yes, potatoes sautéed with egg can be finished in the oven. Roast the potato pieces in an oven-safe pan until tender and browned, pour in beaten egg, then bake until the egg is fully set. The potatoes need to cook before the egg goes in.
Black pepper, paprika, and chopped herbs such as parsley are good seasonings for potatoes sautéed with egg. Add dried spices while the potatoes cook so their flavor blooms in the pan, and stir in fresh herbs at the end to keep them bright.

Potatoes sautéed with egg is a simple pan-cooked dish: pieces of potato are softened and browned, then combined with egg until it sets. Onion, pepper or herbs can be added, and the exact style varies from one home kitchen to another.
It works well for breakfast or brunch, but is also filling enough for a quick lunch or supper. Serve it with toast, a crisp salad or sliced tomatoes; in Turkey, it is often enjoyed at breakfast with bread and tea. The potatoes supply carbohydrates and the egg adds protein, with 4.2 g of protein per 100 g. Use a modest amount of oil and add fresh vegetables for a lighter plate.
