I fix these when I cook pinto beans. I also make cornbread to go with them. We love this meal.

i was just thinking of these this morning .. its been a long time since we had fried potatoes and eggs .. yummy :D ..
add parmesan cheese to it. so good!!
Do you have to cook or microwave the potatoes? Mine started to get overdone and yet the insides were kinda tough….PS I am not a very good cook but am trying to get better!
JC You don’t have to cook or microwave them but turn the heat down if they were browning too quick and then not done on the inside. But that being said it might be better since you are just learning to cook to microwave them for a couple of minutes then slice them. This way they won’t take as long to cook and the insides will cook better too. Also you are the type of person I love helping the most when you said “am trying to get better” keep at it. When I first got married I barely knew how to fry an egg. :) it just takes practice and not giving up and you will get there.
I make these potatoes for the side and add suarqruat and sausage ( cook together ) and serve with potatoes yum
