Instructions
Creating Cheesy Potato Egg Scramble is simple if you follow these steps:
1. Prepare Ingredients: Dice the potatoes, bell peppers, and onion, and set them aside.
2. Cook the Potatoes: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and golden brown.
3. Add Vegetables: Mix in the chopped onion and bell peppers, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until they soften.
4. Whisk Eggs: In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with a pinch of salt and pepper until well mixed.
5. Pour Eggs into Skillet: Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the whisked eggs over the cooked potatoes and vegetables.
6. Scramble: Gently stir the egg mixture, allowing it to cook slowly. Be careful not to overcook the eggs; you want them soft and creamy.
7. Add Cheese: Once the eggs are nearly done, sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top. Allow it to melt into the scramble for extra creaminess.
8. Season: Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper, if needed.
9. Serve Immediately: Remove from heat and transfer to plates while it’s still warm.
These clear steps will help you prepare this delightful scramble effortlessly.
