It pairs beautifully with eggs, sausage, or even chickpeas for a vegetarian twist. For extra flavor, try topping it with crispy bacon or grilled halloumi.

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add diced sweet potatoes, season with salt, pepper, and paprika, and cook for 10–12 minutes until tender and caramelized, stirring occasionally.
Add sliced onions and peppers to the skillet and cook for another 5–7 minutes until softened and golden.
Stir in minced garlic and chili flakes, cooking for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
If adding eggs, make small wells in the hash and crack eggs directly into them. Cover and cook until whites are set and yolks are still runny.
Garnish with chopped herbs and your favorite toppings before serving.
