I know I´ve been making tons of recipes lately using eggs & potatoes. First of all, why not? They´re both such incredible ingredients, affordable and easily accessible all year-round. In this post I will show you how to make the most incredible Spanish Poached Eggs with Paprika Potatoes. This recipe promises to be one of the best egg & potato dishes yet!
To make this recipe I used yukon gold potatoes and cage-free organic eggs. In my opinion, these type fo eggs are superior to regular eggs and offer a better flavor. I also used a Spanish extra virgin olive oil from House of Spain. This olive oil is infused with CBD, giving the olive oil an incredible aroma as well as an extraordinary flavor.
The only technique to this recipe is poaching the eggs, which is quite simple. When you´re poaching eggs make sure your water is simmering and not boiling, otherwise the eggs will fall apart. What you want to do is create a whirlpool using a whisk and then instantly add in an egg. The whirpool will make the egg whites fold around the egg yolk.
TIPS & TRICKS to make this recipe: Cut all the potatoes in the same size, that way they all cook evenly. Poach your eggs one at a time, and make sure you don´t touch them while they are poaching. It took me 3 1/3 minutes to perfectly poach one egg, but each pan heats differently, so keep an eye on them. To cut the cooking time in this recipe, you can poach your eggs while your potatoes are in the oven. On a last note, the CBD infused olive oil I used in this recipe added an incredible touch to this dish, get yourself a bottle, you won´t regret it.

At this point your water should be simmering, using a whisk create a whirlpool in the water and then gently add in 1 egg, poach the egg between 3 to 4 minutes to ensure the whites are cooked through but the yolk is still creamy, transfer to a dish and continue cooking with the same technique untill all your poached eggs are done
