Method
Preheat the oven to 425°F (425°F).
Grease a 6‑muffin tin with butter.
Place two boiled potatoes in each muffin cup and smash them with a small jar to form a cup shape.
Add a tablespoon of sharp cheddar cheese to each potato cup.
Bake for 20‑25 minutes, until the potatoes are golden brown on top.
Remove the pan and reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (325°F).
Crack an egg into each potato cup, season with salt, and bake for about 15‑18 minutes, until the egg whites are set but the yolk remains slightly soft.
Serve warm with a drizzle of chili oil on top.
