Follow The Directions

01

Step

Bacon Potato Cakes: In a large bowl, combine potatoes, bacon, Parmesan cheese, flour, garlic, eggs, green onions, and cayenne pepper. Season generously with salt and pepper. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

02

Step

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Scoop generous tablespoons of the potato mixture into the hot skillet, gently flattening each with a spatula to form a cake. Cook until the underside is a deep golden brown, approximately 2-3 minutes. Flip carefully and cook the other side until golden and cooked through, about 2 minutes longer. (Cook time per batch: 5-7 minutes)

03

Step

To Serve: Place the bacon potato cakes artfully on a plate. Drape with a slice of ham steak. Crown with a perfectly fried egg and arrange the sliced avocado in a beautiful fan on top. Serve immediately and enjoy! (Assembly time: 2 minutes)

For extra crispy potato cakes, ensure the skillet is hot before adding the potato mixture and avoid overcrowding the pan.
Feel free to experiment with different cheeses! Gruyere or sharp cheddar would be delicious alternatives to Parmesan.
If you don't have ham steak, thick-cut bacon or sausage patties work wonderfully as a substitute.
A squeeze of fresh lime juice over the avocado adds a bright, tangy note to the dish.
