To prepare this delicious baked potato recipe with cheese and eggs, start by peeling the potatoes. Choose quality potatoes that have a firm texture, as this will influence the final result of the dish. Cut them into slices about 1-2 cm thick, so they cook evenly. Once you have finished cutting, place the potato slices in a large pot of cold water and add a teaspoon of salt. Bring the water to a boil and let the potatoes simmer for about 25-30 minutes until they are soft but not completely mashed.
While the potatoes are boiling, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius to ensure it is ready to receive your flavorful dish. In a separate bowl, mix the grated cheese with a well-beaten raw egg and a few tablespoons of sour cream. If you are using unsalted cheese, carefully add half a teaspoon of salt, being careful not to overdo it, as the ham and olives already add a bit of salt to the dish.
After the potatoes have boiled, drain them well and arrange them nicely in a greased baking dish, making sure they are evenly distributed. Use a spoon or spatula to create small indentations in the potatoes so you can easily add the eggs. For each serving, crack an egg into each indentation, ensuring that the yolk remains intact. This detail will not only add an attractive appearance but will also provide a creamy texture to the dish.
Then, add the sliced olives and chopped ham on top of the potatoes, distributing them evenly to ensure a rich flavor in every bite. Finally, generously grate cheese on top to create a golden and delicious crust during baking. Place the dish in the preheated oven and let it bake for about 30 minutes, or until the cheese becomes golden and bubbly.
Once it has reached perfection, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. It is delicious warm, and the combination of potatoes, cheese, eggs, and ham will surely delight everyone's taste buds. Don't forget to serve the dish alongside a fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a contrast of textures and flavors. Enjoy your meal!
