If you have a pound of ham plus potatoes and a few seasonings, you can whip up this brunch classic! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil |
1 large onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice |
1 pound ham cut into 1/2-inch dice |
1 pound potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch dice |
1/2 pound sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch dice |
2 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil |
2 tablespoons ketchup |
1 tablespoon dijon mustard |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley |
salt and freshly ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Heat 2 Tbs. oil over low heat in a 12-inch non-stick skillet (so potatoes don't stick). While skillet heats, prepare onion and ham as directed above. A few minutes before cooking, increase heat to medium-high. When oil starts to send up wisps of smoke, add onion and ham; cook, stirring often, until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Meanwhile, dice potatoes and toss with remaining oil. Transfer ham mixture to a bowl and reserve.
2. Add potatoes to empty skillet; cook, stirring only occasionally so they form a golden-brown crust, about 10 minutes. As potatoes cook, mix ketchup, mustard, dried thyme, fresh parsley and 2 Tbs. of water. (Recipe can be prepared to this point up to 2 hours ahead. Spread hot potatoes on a large lipped cookie sheet; cover when cool. Return skillet to medium-high; add potatoes and re-crisp.)
3. Return reserved ham mixture to skillet; stir in ketchup mixture, then season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until hash has nicely browned, about 5 minutes longer.
