Leftouts: Make Hash

Make hash. Not the kind of hash you get in Amsterdam. It's a simple skillet dish you can make if you have left over roast (either pork or beef). It's super simple and great for breakfast with a fried egg and may some ketchup.

Pork roast and potato hash

Here's how to make an easy hash.

• Add a couple teaspoons of olive oil to hot cast iron skillet.
• Dice a potato or two depending on how hungry you are to 1/4" cubes and add to skillet.
• Salt and pepper to taste. You can also add a little onion powder and/or garlic powder or chile powder.
• Let potatoes start to fry and get crusty on medium heat. Turning only occasionally.
• pick apart and shred your left over roast while potatoes cook
• When potatoes start to get crusty on all sides after turning a few times, add the shredded roast in about equal amount to potatoes. You may need to add a splash of oil. I add the solids at bottom of roast dish.
• Let all of it start to fry together and get crunchy.
• Get a 1/4 cup water and the lid to the skillet in your hand.
• Pour the water over the hash and cover immediately. Let steam for a couple more minutes.

Eat it alone or serve with a topping like sour cream, cheese, chopped onions, ketchup, salsa or pesto - or top with a fried egg.

Enjoy!
