Step 1
Cook bacon in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat until edges curl and fat renders, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate, leaving 2 tbsp fat in the pan.
Step 2
Add diced potatoes and onion to the skillet. Cook without stirring for 3 minutes until the bottom browns, then stir and cook another 5 minutes until edges crisp.
Step 3
Return bacon to the skillet. Sprinkle caraway seeds over the top. Make four small wells in the hash and crack an egg into each.
Step 4
Cover the skillet with a lid or foil. Cook over medium-low heat until egg whites set but yolks still jiggle, about 4 minutes.
Step 5
Sprinkle parsley over the top if using. Slide onto a plate and serve straight from the skillet, or divide between plates.
