Instructions
0 Piece sweet potato with a fork a few times and cook in the microwave on high power for about 8 minutes, or until sweet potato is soft and done. 1 While potato is cooking, preheat broiler to high setting and place oven rack on the highest or second highest level. 2 Slice potato horizontally into thin rounds, about 1/4-inch thick. I keep the skin on, remove it if preferred. 3 Spray a non-stick skillet or enameled cast iron skillet with cooking spray and place potato rounds in the skillet in an even flat layer; some gaps are okay. 4 Evenly crack the eggs over the potatoes. 5 Evenly sprinkle with cheese. 6 Evenly sprinkle with paprika, salt, and pepper. 7 Place skillet under broiler and broil for about 3 minutes, or until eggs are set and cheese is as browned as desired. I keep the door close the first 2 minutes and in the final minute, I keep the door open and am constantly readjusting the position of the skillet so that I can control what parts are getting the most intense heat from the broiler. Make sure to use a very trusty hot mitt. 8 Remove from oven and serve immediately. Eggs are best warm and fresh. I serve with ketchup.View original recipe
