- 400g potatoes, pre-cooked and cut into chunks
- 4 spring onions, finely chopped
- 4 tomatoes, chopped

1
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick frying pan and add the bacon, cooking it for 1 to 2 minutes. Tip in the potatoes and cook over a medium heat for 12 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned.

Add the spring onions and tomatoes and cook over a low heat for another 4 to 5 minutes, while poaching the eggs.

Poach the eggs in simmering water for 3 to 4 minutes, until the whites are set and the yolks still runny (or longer if you prefer a firm set).

Share the potato hash between 4 warm serving plates and place a poached egg on top. Season with black pepper, then serve.
