Instructions
- Wash your potato & poke holes with a knife. Microwave for 1 1/2 mins and then cut into cubes.
- Prep your onion, jalapeños & garlic.
- In a pan, add in your olive oil along with your onions, jalapeño and garlic. Sprinkle with salt & pepper and sauté for 3-4 mins.
- Then add in your sweet potato and season with all of your spices. Sauté for another 3-4 mins. Add splashes of water occasionally to keep from burning.
- Add about another 2 tbsp of water and cover with a lid so the potatoes can cook all the way through.
- Uncover and add in your chopped bacon and mix. Let it sit on low heat while you prepare the rest.
- Poached Eggs: Start boiling a pot of water and add in 1 tbsp of vinegar. While it boils, crack in 1 egg at a time through a sieve. Place in an individual ramekin. Create a whirlpool in your pot and carefully drop it in. Let it sit for 3-4 mins to cook. Repeat for second egg.
- Garlic Aioli: Add to a blender and blend until smooth. Add more water as needed for desired consistency.
- Serve your potatoes in a bowl, add some greens, your eggs, the aioli, and then top with crushed red pepper. Crack open those jammy eggs and enjoy!
