Ingredients

  • 2 large (about 700g) Sweet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1.5cm cubes
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 Onion, diced
  • 1 Red capsicum, diced
  • 2 cloves Garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp Smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 4 Eggs
  • 2 Spring onions, sliced, to serve

You’ll need: Large lidded frying pan

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large lidded frying pan over medium heat. Add the sweet potato and salt, cover and cook for 8 minutes, stirring twice.

  2. Uncover and add the onion and capsicum. Cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring now and then, until the sweet potato is tender and golden at the edges.

  3. Stir in the garlic and paprika and cook for 1 minute.

  4. Make four wells in the hash and crack an egg into each. Cover and cook for 4–5 minutes, until the whites are completely set. Cook a little longer if you prefer firm yolks.

  5. Scatter over the spring onions and serve straight from the pan.

Storage

Keeps in the fridge up to 2 days (best without the eggs). Reheat until piping hot all the way through and use fresh eggs.
