Ingredients

  • 3 oz crabmeat, canned or fresh and cooked
  • 1 oz shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 12 eggs
  • 2 medium tomatoes, cored and thinly sliced, or a similar quantity of plum or cherry tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup basil, finely chopped
  • 1 cup cooked potatoes (roasted, boiled, or steamed), in 1/4" slices
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 2T butter, olive oil, bacon fat, or your favorite cooking fat

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. On the stovetop, melt the fat into the skillet. Remove from the heat, and line the bottom and sides with the potato slices, overlapping the slices to get complete coverage.
  • Sprinkle half of the crab meat, cheese, tomato, and basil in layers, then repeat with the rest of these ingredients.
  • Beat the eggs with the salt and pepper. Pour the eggs slowly over the top of the fillings.
  • Bake until the middle is set, about 30 minutes.
  • Serves 4.
