Critical Success Points

  • Fry the potatoes until golden
  • Do not add extra water while cooking the chicken (the onion already releases liquid)
  • Crack the eggs one by one to avoid shells
  • Bake at 180°C for 40 minutes to obtain a nice crust

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful of hot oil splatters when frying the potatoes.
  • Cook the chicken through (internal temperature ≥ 75°C) to avoid salmonella risk.
  • Handle raw eggs with clean hands and disinfect surfaces.
