Cooking Tips
Dice sweet potatoes small for faster stovetop cooking. Covering the pan early helps steam potatoes tender before browning. Add eggs at the end so yolks stay soft.
Variations
Make it spicy: Add red pepper flakes and a pinch of cayenne. Make it veggie-heavy: Add spinach or mushrooms in the last 5 minutes.
