Method
Cut the potatoes into bite‑size cubes and place them in a bowl.
Add 1 tsp olive oil, a pinch of pepper, garlic powder, and paprika; toss to coat evenly.
Preheat the air‑fryer to 390°F (400°F). Arrange the seasoned potatoes in a single layer and air‑fry for 16–18 minutes, shaking or flipping halfway through until golden and crisp.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Potato cubes are golden and crisp after air frying.
While the potatoes cook, heat a large skillet over medium heat and spray lightly with avocado oil.
Add the diced onion and red pepper to the skillet; sauté for 4–5 minutes until softened.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula; cook for about 4 minutes until browned and seared.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Beef browns into crumbles with no pink remaining.
Season the beef, onions, and peppers with additional garlic powder, paprika, and pepper to taste; stir to combine.
When the potatoes are done, transfer them to the skillet and mix everything together, creating an even layer.
Reduce the heat to just below medium. Using a spoon, make two wells in the mixture and pour the 2 whole eggs and 200 g egg whites into the wells.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the eggs set for about 1 minute, or until the egg whites are firm but the yolks are still slightly runny.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Egg whites set while yolks stay slightly runny.
Season the finished dish with salt to taste, then sprinkle the grated parmesan over the top.
Remove from heat, let rest for a minute, then serve hot directly from the skillet.
