Ingredients
Rosti:
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled

Method
1. Preheat the oven to 190°C fan and line a baking tray with parchment.

3. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle over the olive oil and mix everything together thoroughly.
4. Using your hands make 3-4 rostis of your desired size and thickness (usually 2 – 3 cm thick works well) and place these on the baking tray
5. Bake for 30 minutes, flipping halfway so both sides crisp up.
6. Meanwhile poach your eggs and gather all other toppings together.
Assemble the breakfast stack and enjoy!
