Diner Style Breakfast

Ok so I thought my first post on here would be a gourmet recipe but this is like anti-gourmet. It’s really down-home and comforting and the truth is, it’s the breakfast my man loves. So I made it for him this morning. He ate it ALL and he’s not obese so that means its yummy. And that’s ketchup in that little ramekin in case you were wondering, which I know you were, nosy!

It’s super easy to make this. The potato concoction above is inspired by Mary’s Breakfast Potatoes (Mary is my husband’s aunt a.k.a Gangsta Granny but more about that later). It’s basically the same recipe but with seasoning salt. The smallest things can make a big difference though. Those potatoes are very very dangerous, so proceed with caution!

Anyway back to the recipe… You’ll need these “ingrediences” (OMG remember when Teresa from Real Housewives of New Jersey said “ingrediences”??? No?? Whatever, it’s fine.):

You don’t need all those eggs and sausages obvi. Ok so the first step is heating a little bit of oil in a medium to small sized pan.

While the oil heats up on a low/medium flame peel and slice the potatoes into thin discs and half an onion into half moons.

By now the oil should be hot enough. Test it with a slice of potato. If it sizzles in the oil, its hot enough. Separate the onions and mix them with the potatoes and put them in the hot oil, season and then cover them and let them steam.

Now put the sausages in a little skillet over medium heat and rotate them every few minutes to get them browned on all sides.

 At this point you’re juggling. You’re checking on the potatoes and mixing them up to make sure the bottom ones are crispy (not burnt) and allowing others to crisp up. You’re rotating the sausages making sure they are browning not burning also. And now you’re about the make the eggs.

Side note about eggs: My guy likes them scrambled and well-done, but you can do them anyway you like. I allow you.

So, if you wanna know how to make fast well-done scrambled eggs, these pics are for you. If not, sorry, not sorry.

I know. I know. That’s a shitload of butter. But it’s for a very active man and who are you? My mother?! Omg, so sorry, these are my issues not yours… oh ya eggs:

Sorry about some of the upside down pics. I’m in the process of getting my shit together, please be patient. Are you still here??

Ok so, by now the sausages and potatoes should be done. Check the potatoes for doneness by sticking a fork in them, if it goes in and out easily it’s done, stick a fork in it! (Full circle moment, are you paying attention?)
