EGGS AND SOLDIERS

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes
Total Time 55 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 2 sweet potatoes, each cut into about 8 (¼-inch) wedges
  • 8 slices bacon, halved
  • 8 eggs
  • Toward the end of the baking time, bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Using a spoon, carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water, and cook for 6 minutes. Use a spoon to transfer the eggs to a colander, and run them under cold water to stop further cooking. Place into egg cups, and cut off the tops.

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Wrap each sweet potato wedge with ½ piece of bacon.
  3. Place on a baking sheet, and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, turning the potatoes over halfway through the cooking time.
  4. Remove from the oven, and let cool slightly.
  5. Serve 2 eggs and 4 potato wedges per person. To eat, dip the bacon-wrapped sweet potatoes into the egg yolk.
  6. When you’ve eaten the sweet potatoes, spoon out the rest of the eggs onto your plate.
