Once cooled, place in a large frying pan with the oil and fry until they begin to crisp up. Evenly sprinkle over the curds and continue to fry
7
Make some little holes in the potatoes so you can see the pan and crack some eggs in between the curds and the potatoes
8
Allow the eggs to begin frying over a high heat. As the whites start to form, add dollops of the spiced sugo into the pan randomly to create chaos
9
Slip the pan into the oven on the grill setting for 3 minutes to set the whites and crisp up the potatoes one final time. Season to taste. Slip onto a plate, sprinkle with onion seeds and serve with a big hunk of sourdough bread
