Ingredients

SEE NOTES TO MAKE IT VEGAN

  • 375 g (13.2 oz) potatoes cut into small chunks (peeled if you prefer)
  • 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
  • 1 onion (about 200g) chopped
  • 0.5 tsp caraway seeds (see Notes)
  • 2 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 green pepper deseeded and diced
  • 200 g (7.1 oz) large brussel sprouts trimmed and sliced
  • 2 eggs

Instructions

  • Boil the potatoes for 8 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and fry the onion for 8 minutes, stirring frequently until they start to colour. Add the caraway, garlic, pepper and sprouts and cook for 5 minutes more with the lid on the pan so they steam at the same time.
  • Drain and lightly crush the cooked potatoes using a masher. Stir them into the vegetables and cook for 5 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally so the mixture browns.
  • Meanwhile, poach the eggs for a few minutes for a runny yolk or until cooked to your liking. Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon. Serve each portion of hash topped with an egg.

Notes

  • Make it vegan – Omit the eggs and decrease the potatoes to 250g. Cut 140g extra firm tofu into cubes and fry with the onion and sprouts. Top with 2 tomatoes, halved and fried in a little oil.
  • Caraway seeds – if you don’t have caraway seeds, fennel seeds, cumin seeds or nigella seeds are a good substitute.
  • This winter breakfast hash recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people.
