Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 4 lices Bacon diced
- 1 medium yellow onion diced
- 3 medium sweet potatoes diced
- 1 heaping teaspoon salt plus more to taste
- freshly cracked pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 8 large eggs
- 3 scallions thinly sliced, dark and light green parts only
Notes
- Dry the sweet potatoes well before adding them to the pan. Excess water will create steam and will make them mushy instead of crisp.
- Make sure your sweet potatoes are diced in uniform sizes so they cook evenly.
- Use a wide pan or skillet so the sweet potatoes are evenly spread on the hot surface so they can crisp up and brown nicely.
- Do not fully cook the bacon before adding the onions. It will continue to cook with the rest of the hash ingredients.
- Always cook the eggs fresh to order. If you have more hash leftover, cook the eggs fresh when reheating for best results.
- Don't skip the green onions! They're more than just a garnish. Scallions make the dish by adding a fresh, oniony bite that nicely compliments the other rich flavors.
