Make 2 wells in the hash, crack in the eggs, cover, and cook until the whites set and the yolks thicken to your preference. · 5 min
When it is done: Egg whites should be fully set before serving.
Serve Hot

Orange sweet potato: Use the same weight and dice evenly for the same cooking time.

Pepper

Red pepper: Red pepper gives a slightly sweeter hash while staying true to the dish.

Egg

Large egg: Use 1 large egg for each egg in the recipe.

Olive oil

Butter: Butter gives a richer flavor and browns more quickly.
