Cooking instructions

Cooking Mode turns the method into large, slide-by-slide instructions with timers, read-aloud, screen-awake and optional voice controls.

  1. 1

    Prepare the ingredients

    Cut the potatoes into bite-sized cubes. Finely chop the onion and garlic, dice the red pepper, crumble the feta, chop the coriander and slice the green chilli if using. Drain any excess liquid from the chopped tomatoes if they are particularly watery.

  2. 2

    Crisp the potatoes

    Heat half the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes, season with salt, black pepper and half the smoked paprika, then cook for 15–20 minutes, turning regularly, until golden, crisp at the edges and tender inside. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.

  3. 3

    Make the rancheros-style sauce

    Add the remaining oil to the same pan. Cook the onion and red pepper for 4–5 minutes until softened. Add the garlic, cumin, oregano, chilli flakes and remaining smoked paprika and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and simmer for 8–10 minutes until rich and thickened.

  4. 4

    Add the potatoes and eggs

    Return the crispy potatoes to the pan and fold them through the tomato mixture. Make four wells in the mixture and crack an egg into each. Cover the pan and cook over medium-low heat for 6–8 minutes, or until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking.

  5. 5

    Finish with feta

    Remove the lid and scatter the crumbled feta over the potatoes and eggs. Add the chopped coriander and sliced green chilli if using. Season with a little extra black pepper and chilli flakes to taste.

  6. 6

    Serve and enjoy

    Serve the loaded patatas rancheros-style straight from the pan or divide between warm plates. Finish with lime wedges for squeezing over at the table. Serve immediately while the potatoes are crisp and the eggs are hot.

Allergens and dietary notes

Milk / dairyEggs

For this recipe: Feta contains milk and the recipe contains eggs. Check any packaged tomato sauce, spice blend or tortillas served alongside for additional allergens if required.

Useful substitutions

Feta is widely available from Big C, Lotus’s and Makro; a firm salad cheese can be used instead. Use regular Thai potatoes or baby potatoes. Red or yellow bell pepper both work well. Fresh coriander can be omitted if preferred, and mild fresh chilli can replace jalapeño.

Storage and reheating

Storage

Cool leftovers promptly and refrigerate in a covered container for up to 2 days. For best texture, store any uncooked garnishes separately. Eggs are best freshly cooked.

Reheating

Reheat the potato and tomato mixture in a frying pan or microwave until piping hot throughout. If possible, cook fresh eggs when serving reheated leftovers and add the feta and coriander after heating.
