Instructions
Cooking the Hash
- Heat a big skillet over medium-high heat and add oil or butter.
- Toss in the diced potatoes with salt and pepper. Spread them out and let them sit for a few minutes before you stir.
- Once the potatoes are halfway tender, add onions and peppers. If the pan looks dry, add a tiny splash more oil. Cook until the veggies soften.
- Add your cooked sausage or bacon and sprinkle in smoked paprika if desired.
- Make wells in the hash, crack eggs into the dips, cover the pan and cook until the whites are set.
- Add cheese at the end, cover again for about a minute, and let it melt. Finish with toppings.
Notes
If cooking for someone who prefers milder flavors, keep spicy toppings on the side to accommodate different taste preferences.
