Ingredients

  • 5 large eggs
  • 2 cup mashed potatoes, chilled
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup marinara sauce, warmed
  • 2 tablespoon freshly grated parmesan

Preparation

Baking Directions:

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.

Stir 1 egg in a large bowl to blend.

Mix in the potatoes, then the flour.

Using a generous 1/2 cup of potato mixture for each, form the potato mixture into 4 (4 1/2-inch) diameter pancakes.

Heat the oil in a large nonstick fry pan over medium heat.

Fry the pancakes until they are golden brown and heated through, about 2 minutes per side.

Transfer the pancakes to paper towels to drain.

Keep the pancakes warm on a baking sheet in the oven.

Pour off the excess oil from the pan.

Heat the pan over medium-low heat.

Crack the remaining 4 eggs into the pan.

Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Cook until the white is firm, about 2 minutes.

Using a spatula, turn the eggs over and cook for 30 seconds longer.

Spoon the sauce onto 4 plates.

Place a pancake atop the sauce.

Top each pancake with a fried egg.

Sprinkle with the Parmesan and serve.
