How to Make Eggs With Bacon Onions And Potatoes Hoppelpoppel

  1. Boil 1 pound of small potatoes in salted water until slightly tender but still firm (about 10-12 minutes). Drain and let cool completely. Dice into ½-inch pieces.
  2. Cook 4 slices of bacon in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside on paper towels. Crumble when cool.
  3. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, to the bacon fat in the skillet. Cook for 5 minutes, or until softened and translucent, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add the diced potatoes to the skillet with the onions. Cook over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 2 tablespoons milk, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
  6. Stir the crumbled bacon into the potato and onion mixture.
  7. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the potatoes and bacon.
  8. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until the eggs are set but still slightly moist.
  9. Carefully invert the Hoppelpoppel onto a plate to serve.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy!
