Method

  1. Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Tip the potato wedges into a roasting tin. Drizzle over the oil and sprinkle over the paprika. Season and mix well to coat the potatoes. Roast for 25 mins, turning halfway through, until almost tender.

  2. Nestle the tomatoes, cut-side up, amongst the potatoes. Make 2 spaces in the tin and crack an egg into each one. Return to the oven for 6-8 mins until the eggs are just set.

Simple and delicious. (Followed tip to keep potatoes in oven for 30 mins before adding eggs)

Lovely recipe which I have made a number of times. Next time, think will leave the potatoes in for at least 30 mins before adding the eggs, as some of the wedges weren't quite soft. I cut each baking potato in half, then each half potato into eight wedges. Yummy with the smoked paprika, I hadn't tried that before and it really makes a difference!

Quick and easy no fuss meal! I had to leave the potatoes in for slightly longer than stated though as they were not quite cooked - though I think this could have been my oven!

Just had this for dinner. 4 clean plates. A new family favourite (especially as we keep hens)

Had to cook a coupl of minutes longer as the eggs were too lightly cooked for me (also have a 'slow' cooker) but fab with the pepper added
