Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add hash browns and fry for about 10-15 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  2. In a separate skillet, cook diced bacon over medium-low heat until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Drain on paper towels, retaining grease.
  3. In the skillet with bacon grease, add flour and whisk for 2-3 minutes until bubbly. Gradually add milk and whisk until thickened, about 3-4 minutes. Season with black pepper.
  4. In a nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Crack eggs and cook sunny-side up for 3-4 minutes.
  5. On each plate, layer hash browns, top with bacon gravy, and place sunny-side up eggs on top.
  6. Serve immediately while hot, garnished with fresh herbs or cheese if desired.
