Sylvia Plath And Ted Hughes Breakfast Toast
- 1 medium potato
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2-4 slices of bacon, depending on size
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 cups cabbage, shredded
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 2 slices good-quality sourdough bread
- 2 eggs
- salt and pepper to taste
- Chop the potato into rough slivers, about 1/4 inch thick and precook, either salted and tossed with olive oil in a 400u0b0 F oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or in boiling water for 5 to 10 minutes until tender.
- While the potato is cooking, fry the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat. Remove bacon and drain off most of the grease, leaving about 2 tbs grease and all of the crunchy brown bits in the pan.
- Turn the heat to medium low, add the garlic, and stir until the raw edge is removed, about 1 minute. Add the cabbage and cook, stirring occasionally until it's wilted. Add cooked potatoes. Toss and season with paprika and salt and pepper to taste. Continue to fry on medium-low heat, 5 to 10 minutes until the mixture is beginning to brown. Set aside.
- Toast the slices of sourdough bread.
- While the bread is toasting, fry two eggs until cooked on both sides but runny in the middle. Season appropriately.
- Assemble the toast, layering on the cabbage-potato mixture, then bacon, then fried egg.
