  • Heat the butter or margarine in a large non-stick frying pan, once bubbling, add the chopped tomato and fry for 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the matchstick chips to the pan and stir to combine. Season with a sprinkling of salt and white pepper.
  • Make four wells in the matchstick potatoes and crack an egg into each well. Season the eggs with a sprinkling of salt and white pepper and scatter with coriander.
  • Cook the eggs to your liking, scatter with additional coriander just before serving.
  • Top Potato Tip: This dish is delicious served with dollops of yoghurt just before serving!
