Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (450g) pulled pork, leftover or freshly made
  • 3 medium Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes, peeled and diced into ½-inch cubes
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 1 medium bell pepper (red or green), diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley or chives, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Peel and dice 3 medium Yukon Gold potatoes into ½-inch cubes. Rinse in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat dry with a clean towel. (About 10 minutes)
  2. Heat 3 tablespoons of olive or avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes in a single layer and cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes to develop a golden crust. Stir and continue cooking for another 10-12 minutes until crisp and tender inside. Season with salt and pepper during cooking. (15 minutes)
  3. Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet with the potatoes. Stir and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic in the last minute to avoid burning. (6 minutes)
  4. Stir in 2 cups of pulled pork, breaking up any large chunks. Sprinkle in smoked paprika, ground cumin, and adjust salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until pork is heated through and spices are fragrant. (5 minutes)
  5. In a separate smaller skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Crack 4 eggs and cook them to your preference—sunny-side up, over-easy, or softly scrambled. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. (5 minutes)
  6. Divide the hash onto plates, top each with an egg, and garnish with fresh parsley or chives. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

Rinse and dry potatoes before cooking to remove excess starch for crispiness. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure potatoes brown properly. Cook eggs separately to prevent sogginess. Toast spices briefly in the pan with pork and veggies to boost aroma. Adjust seasoning to taste and consider adding chili flakes for heat.
