Instructions

  1. Peel the potatoes and cut into not-too-thick slices. Place in a bowl of cold water to remove the starch.
  2. Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and add the oil. Drain the potatoes and slide them into the hot pan while still dripping wet. Close the lid immediately and cook covered for 10-15 minutes. Open the lid, stir the potatoes, and distribute the bacon, onions, and caraway seeds over them without stirring. Close the lid again, reduce the heat to medium if browning too strongly, and cook for 5 more minutes.
  3. While the potatoes are cooking in step 2, cut the meat loaf into slices similar to the potatoes. When step 2 is complete, open the lid, stir everything together, add the meat loaf slices, marjoram, and salt. Continue frying uncovered over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until browned. Stir in the parsley, gherkins, and black pepper.
  4. In a separate pan over medium heat, fry the 4 eggs in butter.
  5. Divide the Gröstl among preheated plates and top each with a fried egg, or serve directly from the pan.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
