Step 1
Shred potatoes using a box grater. Squeeze firmly in a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
Step 2
Cook bacon in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high until crispy, ~8 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3
Leave 2 tbsp bacon fat in the skillet. Add shredded potatoes, press down firmly with a spatula.
Step 4
Cook without stirring for 5 minutes until bottom edges turn golden brown and crispy.
Step 5
Flip sections of the hashbrowns and cook another 3 minutes. Stir in cooked bacon and cheese.
Step 6
Push hashbrowns to the sides. Crack eggs into the center of the skillet and cover with a lid.
Step 7
Cook 3 minutes until egg whites set but yolks still jiggle. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 8
Slide onto a plate and serve immediately.
