Sweet Potato Hash
Sweet potato hash is truly one of the most glorious things in life. Not much beats crispy sweet potato in a pan. Well, until we add a few other goodies that it. Introducing –
Sweet Potato Breakfast Hash
If I’m making regular sweet potato hash it’s usually to go alongside something else. I really wanted to develop a recipe that includes sweet potato hash, that’s all in one pan and enough to comfortably feed 4. Taking inspiration from the Shakshuka I uploaded a few weeks ago, I think I succeeded!
How to make Sweet Potato Breakfast Hash (quick summary)
- Add onion, red pepper, jalapeno and garlic to a pan and fry over medium heat.
- Add chorizo and black beans.
- Remove from pan and drizzle in more oil.
- Add diced sweet potato.
- Stir in smoked paprika and cumin.
- Add chorizo mix.
- Make 4 holes.
- Crack in eggs and bake.
Sweet Potato Hash with Eggs
For me, the eggs truly make this breakfast. One condition – the yolk HAS to be runny. To achieve this you want to pop the skillet in the oven as soon as the eggs are cracked in. Pop it to a fairly low temp (180c/356f) and bake for 10mins, or until the eggs are JUST set. It’s important to only cook until they’re just about set as they will continue cooking once removed from the oven.
What to serve with Sweet Potato Breakfast Hash?
The sweet potato hash itself is pretty hearty, but if you like a little extra something then served with avocado slices/smashed avocado. Oh and a light sprinkling of parsley or coriander/cilantro.
And there we have it! A super easy, minimal washing up and darn right delicious breakfast or brunch ready for the taking. Hey, whilst you’re here why not check out my other recipes?
