Best Jerk Pork Belly And Sweet Potato Hash With Fried Eggs Recipes

SWEET POTATO HASH WITH FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet, puncture with a fork, and roast until tender but still slightly underdone, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Peel and cut into 1-inch cubes; set aside.
• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, onions and peppers and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the diced sweet potatoes and some salt and pepper; continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Turn the heat to low and stir in the spinach.
• Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and fry the eggs until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny. Spoon the hash onto four plates and top each serving with a fried egg. Garnish with basil and Parmesan.

DECONSTRUCTED SWEET POTATO HASH WITH FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 sage leaves and fry quickly until crisp, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain. Reserve.
• Add the sweet potatoes to the skillet, toss until coated in the butter, then add the water and the remaining 8 sage leaves. Bring the water to a simmer and cook the potatoes, uncovered, until the water has evaporated and the potatoes are just fork tender, about 10 minutes. If there is any excess water in the pan, remove it with a large spoon and reserve. Continue cooking the potatoes, scraping the pan frequently with a spoon, until crusty brown, about 10 more minutes. Add a tablespoon of the leftover cooking liquid or fresh water if the potatoes stick or begin to scorch.
• Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook, adding water as necessary when the pan gets dry, until deep golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer the onions to a serving bowl. Wipe out the pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, and fry the eggs, 2 at a time, to your preference. Cook's Note: I like mine over easy.
• Plate the potatoes in the center of 4 plates with the caramelized onions alongside. Top each plate with 2 fried eggs, garnish with a fried sage leaf and enjoy!
• Cook's Note: Serve with your favorite breakfast meat.

SWEET POTATO ASPARAGUS HASH WITH FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Toss the sweet potatoes in a bowl with the paprika, 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Spread on a rimmed baking pan in a single layer and bake, stirring once or twice, until tender and golden in spots, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden, about 15 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Increase the heat to medium high and add the asparagus. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the roasted sweet potatoes and sage and season with salt and pepper. Transfer the hash to a bowl, cover and keep warm.
• Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil to the skillet and heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and fry the eggs as desired. Divide the hash among plates and top with the fried eggs. Serve with hot sauce.

JERK CHICKEN AND SWEET POTATO HASH WITH POACHED EGGS AND MANGO-HABANERO HOT SAUCE

Steps:

• For the hot sauce: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallots and cook until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the mangoes and habaneros and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often. Add the vinegar and a tablespoon or so of the honey. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until the mangoes are soft, about 10 minutes.
• Pour the mixture into a blender and blend until smooth. Add salt, pepper, and more honey to taste. If very thick, thin with a few tablespoons water. Strain through a sieve set over a small bowl. (Makes about 1 cup.)
• For the hash: Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the jerk chicken, sweet potatoes, scallions and cilantro; toss together. Press the mixture into the pan and cook, undisturbed, until the bottom starts to brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Turn over parts of the hash, press and crisp again.
• For the eggs: Line a plate with paper towels. Crack the eggs into little bowls. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil over medium-high heat; stir in the vinegar. Slip the eggs into the water, adjusting the heat to maintain a bare simmer. Cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 4 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer the eggs to paper towels to dry.
• To assemble: While the eggs are poaching, set a ring mold on a dinner plate and spoon in some of the hash, pressing to crush the potatoes a bit. Remove the mold. Make a little divot in the top of the hash, then spoon on a poached egg and drizzle some hot sauce over the top. (If you don't have a ring mold, just mound the hash onto plates.) Garnish with scallions and cilantro. Repeat for the remaining servings. Serve immediately.
• In a small bowl, combine the coriander, ginger, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, habanero powder, thyme, cinnamon, cloves and black pepper. Mix to blend. (Makes about 1 cup; extra spice mix can be stored in a sealed container in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months.)
• Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides; rub the top side with a generous amount of the spice mix.
• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts, rub-side down, and cook until a crust forms, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until just cooked through, about 4 minutes more.
