Instructions

1
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes until tender and browned, flipping to ensure even cooking. Remove potatoes from the skillet and set aside.
2
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat. Add the diced onion and green bell pepper to the skillet with the beef. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
3
Return the cooked potatoes to the skillet with the beef and vegetables. Stir in the garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything thoroughly, pressing down lightly to create some crispy edges on the hash, and cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4
If desired, create four wells in the hash and crack an egg into each well. Cover the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are to your liking. Garnish generously with fresh chopped parsley before serving hot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this hash vegetarian?

Yes, you can substitute the ground beef with cooked lentils, black beans, or a plant-based ground substitute. Adjust seasonings as needed.

What kind of potatoes work best?

Russet potatoes are ideal for their starchiness, which helps them get crispy. Yukon Gold or red potatoes can also be used, but they may yield a slightly different texture.

Can I prepare this ahead of time?

The potato and beef mixture can be cooked ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet, adding a little oil if needed, until warmed through. Add fresh eggs if serving for breakfast.
