Potato Latke Omelet Cups
- 6 yukon gold potatoes, shredded
- 1/2 cup mashed potatoes
- 1 tablespoon matzo meal or whole wheat flour
- 3 t. butter, melted
- kosher salt and pepper
- 8-10 fresh, fresher, freshest eggs possible
- 1 large sweet red pepper, seeded & deveined
- 2-3 cups fresh baby spinach leaves
- 2 large portabello mushroom caps
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon good quality olive oil
- fresh chives, snipped
- equipment "Texas" large muffin pan
- Shred your potatoes using a box grater or food processor. Pat dry with clean dishcloth or cheesecloth. Combine mashed potatoes, shredded potatoes, and flour. Spray large cup muffin tin with non-stick spray.
- Add melted butter to potato mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Pat out latkes into tin and up the sides. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes until golden brown. When brown, turn off oven but keep potatoes in oven until ready to serve.
- Saute mushrooms and red pepper in skillet with olive oil. Add spinach and saute until wilted.
- Add butter to pan and softly scramble the eggs into the vegetables. Add 2 oz. of the goat cheese. rnrnA great way to get small crumbles is to run the tines of a fork across the log of cheese.
- Spoon egg scramble into each of the cups, top with additional cheese and chives.
- Tip: I plan for 1 egg per person plus some extra but sometimes the eggs I get from my friend's farm will have very small eggs in the winter--so you may need to watch your eggs...if you are buying large eggs from the grocery store, you should be fine with 1 egg per person plus 2 extra.
