Getting your day started with a good breakfast is super important. It gives you the energy you need to tackle whatever comes your way. Today, we’re making a yummy Sweet Potato Hash that’s packed with flavor and goodness. It’s a warm and satisfying meal that’s easy to make and tastes amazing.
Ingredients Needed
* 1 large sweet potato, peeled and diced into small cubes
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1/2 red onion, chopped
* 1 bell pepper (any color), chopped
* 1/2 teaspoon paprika
* 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
* Salt and black pepper to taste
* Optional: 2 eggs, cooked to your liking (fried or poached)
Step By Step Making
1. Place the diced sweet potato in a microwave-safe bowl with a tablespoon of water. Cover and microwave on high for 3-4 minutes, or until slightly softened. This helps it cook faster in the pan.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
3. Add the chopped red onion and bell pepper to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, until they start to soften.
4. Add the slightly softened sweet potato cubes to the skillet.
5. Sprinkle in the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir everything well to coat the vegetables evenly.
6. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are tender and nicely browned.
7. If you’re adding eggs, you can cook them separately in another pan or make space in the skillet to fry them alongside the hash.
8. Serve the Sweet Potato Hash hot, topped with your perfectly cooked eggs if desired.
