Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes
Preheat Your Oven:
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
Cut and Season the Potatoes:
Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized cubes.
In a large bowl, combine the potatoes with 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to the bowl. Mix until the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Roast the Potatoes:
Spread the seasoned potato cubes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork. Stir halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Step 2: Prepare the Egg Mixture
Whisk the Eggs:
In a separate bowl, crack 3 eggs and whisk them together until the yolks and whites are well blended.
Add Sour Cream and Seasoning:
Add 3 tablespoons of sour cream, 1/3 teaspoon of salt, and a bit of black pepper to the eggs. Whisk again until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Prepare the Add-Ins:
Dice the tomato and sausage (or ham) into small, even pieces.
Finely chop the green onions and dill.
Step 3: Assemble the Casserole
Combine Ingredients:
Once the potatoes are roasted, place them in a baking dish.
Pour the egg and sour cream mixture over the potatoes, ensuring it covers them evenly.
Add the diced tomato and sausage, spreading them evenly across the top.
Sprinkle with chopped green onions and dill for added flavor and color.
Bake the Casserole:
Reduce the oven temperature to 180°C (350°F).
Place the assembled casserole in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and slightly golden on top.
Cool and Serve:
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Slice into portions and serve hot. Enjoy!
