  • Olive oil 2 tbsp 30 g
  • Sweet potato, peeled, in 1 cm cubes 600 g ≈ 4 ½ cups
  • Onion, chopped 160 g ≈ 1 cup
  • Red bell pepper, diced 200 g ≈ 1 ¼ cups
  • Lean ground turkey (93%) 400 g
  • Paprika 1 ½ tsp
  • Ground cumin 1 tsp
  • Salt ¾ tsp
  • Black pepper ½ tsp
  • Eggs 4 large 200 g
  • Green onions, sliced 40 g ≈ ½ cup

Steps

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the sweet potato, cover and cook for 8 minutes, stirring twice, until almost tender.
  3. Add the onion and pepper and cook uncovered for 3 minutes.
  4. Add the turkey, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper and cook for 5 minutes, breaking up the meat, until no pink remains.
  5. Make a well in the middle, crack in the egg, cover and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the white is set.
  6. Sprinkle with the green onion and serve.

Tip: Cook a double batch of the hash without the egg; it reheats well for up to 3 days.
