Pro Tips & Suggestions

Expert advice for the best results

Make sure the oil is at the correct temperature before frying the eggs to ensure they cook evenly and the hash browns get crispy.

Don't overcrowd the pot when frying; cook the eggs in batches.

Serve the salad immediately after frying the eggs so they are still warm and crispy.
