Good mornings start with a good meal. If you want a fun way to wake up your body, you need a warm plate of food. I love making this sweet potato breakfast hash because it is filling and very easy to cook at home.
You do not need many fancy tools to make this dish. A simple pan and a good knife are enough. If you like hearty meals that keep you full until lunch, this recipe is for you. Let us get into the kitchen and make some magic happen.
Why You Will Love This Morning Meal
Waking up early is hard. Having a great breakfast makes it much better. This sweet potato hash gives you a sweet and savory taste in every single bite. The edges of the potatoes get crispy while the inside stays soft.
You can also mix things up. If you love big meals, you might also enjoy a hearty evening meal like a Simple One-Pan Sausage and Veggies Dinner after a long day of work. But for now, let us focus on starting your morning right.
Ingredients Needed
You only need a few basic grocery items to put this together. Check your kitchen before you start cooking.
- Two medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into small cubes
- One small yellow onion, chopped into tiny pieces
- Two tablespoons of olive oil
- Half a teaspoon of salt
- Quarter teaspoon of black pepper
- Half a teaspoon of garlic powder
- Two large eggs
- Fresh parsley for topping, if you have it
Step By Step Making
1. First, wash your sweet potatoes well. Peel the skin off and cut them into small, even squares. Small squares cook much faster.
2. Put your pan on the stove over medium heat. Add the olive oil and let it get warm for a minute.
3. Toss your chopped onions and sweet potato cubes right into the pan. Stir them around so the oil covers every piece.
4. Sprinkle your salt, black pepper, and garlic powder over the mix. Stir again.
5. Let the pan cook without touching it too much. This helps the potatoes turn brown and crispy. Cook for about fifteen minutes until the potatoes are soft when you poke them with a fork.
6. Make two small holes in the potato mix using your spoon. Crack an egg right into each hole.
7. Put a lid over your pan. Let it sit for three to four minutes so the egg whites turn solid, but the yellow yolk stays runny.
8. Turn off the stove. Scoop your warm hash onto a plate, add your fresh parsley on top, and eat it right away.
