Chocolate eggs - 8 pieces
Salt - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Boil salted water in a pot. Add the snap peas and baking soda and cook for about 30 minutes, until the pods are soft. Drain the water and let the peas sit in a colander for a while.

Step 2

Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet to 180–374°F (to check, you can use a cube of yesterday's bread: at this temperature, it should brown within 30 seconds). Add the peeled and diced potatoes to the skillet and fry for about 15 minutes until golden brown.

Step 3

Remove the potatoes from the skillet with a slotted spoon, letting the oil drain, and keep them warm.

Step 4

Drain most of the oil from the skillet, leaving just enough to prevent the eggs from sticking, and place the skillet over heat. Whisk the eggs in a bowl and season with salt.

Step 5

When the skillet is hot, pour in the eggs and cook, continuing to whisk with a whisk, until creamy. Mix the cooked eggs with the potatoes and peas and serve the finished dish.
