Description
Achieve ultimate crunch with this Crispy Vegan Breakfast Hash! Golden-brown potatoes, tender veggies, and savory flavors combine for a satisfying plant-based morning.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large Russet potatoes, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 1 large bell pepper (any color), diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil)
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt (or to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
Instructions
- Step 1: Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the diced potatoes in a single layer if possible, avoiding overcrowding the pan (cook in batches if necessary).
- Step 2: Cook the potatoes undisturbed for 5-7 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms on the bottom. Then, flip and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for another 10-12 minutes until they are mostly tender and browned on several sides.
- Step 3: Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet with the potatoes. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.
- Step 4: Stir in the minced garlic, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the garlic is fragrant.
- Step 5: Continue cooking the hash for an additional 5-10 minutes, stirring less frequently to allow the potatoes and vegetables to crisp up further. Adjust seasoning to taste before serving.
Notes
- Store any leftover hash in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days; it makes for a super quick future breakfast!
- For best results and to revive that lovely crispiness, reheat your hash in a skillet over medium heat with a tiny bit of oil, or spread it on a baking sheet and warm in an oven until heated through and crisp again.
- Elevate your hash with a dollop of fresh avocado, a drizzle of your favorite hot sauce, or a sprinkle of fresh cilantro for a burst of flavor and freshness.
- For truly crispy potatoes, resist the urge to overcrowd the skillet and don't stir them too often in the initial stages; giving them space and undisturbed time is key to forming that irresistible golden crust.
