Inspired by Oscars 2026: Who Will Win, and Who Should Win? and How Trump's War in Iran Has Echoes of Putin and Ukraine.

Instructions

  1. Preheat the broiler to high and set the oven rack to the top position.
  2. In a large pot, boil the diced potatoes in salted water for about 10 minutes or until slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Spread the seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 15 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
  5. Remove the potatoes from the oven and create four small wells in the potato mixture. Crack an egg into each well.
  6. Return the baking sheet to the broiler and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain runny.
  7. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
