Ingredients:
• 375g potatoes, cut into small chunks
• 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
• 1 onion (about 200g), chopped
• ½ tsp caraway seeds
• 2 garlic cloves, chopped
• 1 green pepper, deseeded and diced
• 200g large brussels sprouts, trimmed and sliced
• 2 eggs
Instructions:
1. Boil the potatoes in salted water for 15 minutes until tender, then drain and set aside.
2. While the potatoes are cooking, heat the rapeseed oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for around 8 minutes, stirring often, until softened and starting to colour.
3. Stir in the caraway seeds, garlic, diced green pepper, and sliced brussels sprouts. Cover with a lid and cook for 5 more minutes, letting the vegetables steam and soften.
4. Lightly crush the cooked potatoes with a masher and stir them into the pan. Cook for 5–10 minutes more, turning occasionally, until the hash is golden and crisp in places.
5. While the hash finishes, poach the eggs to your preferred doneness.
6. Serve each portion of hash topped with a warm poached egg.
Healthy Swaps & Tips:
• Swap poached eggs for fried or boiled eggs if preferred
• Add extra greens like kale or spinach
• Finish with a drizzle of hot sauce for a kick
• Brussels sprouts can be swapped for finely shredded cabbage
Storage & Meal Prep:
• Hash can be made in advance and reheated
• Poach eggs fresh for best texture
• Leftover hash makes a great lunch or side dish
