David Changs Potato Chip And Egg

David Chang's Potato Chip And Egg

This combination might seem unusual—potato chips, eggs, and caviar—but it's a surprisingly delicious way to enjoy eggs (FYI the caviar is very optional). The crunchy texture of the potato chips complements the soft eggs, while the sautéed onions with vinegar and caviar provide an acidic pop that balances the creaminess of the eggs. Featured on Dinner Time Live on Netflix, this is David Chang's bold twist on chilaquiles. As one guest put it, "This is one of the best things I've ever eaten in my life. Ever. Ever."
