Breakfast Hash with Sunny Side Up Egg
23 October
Subho Saptami to all my readers!
Finally it is a beautiful sunny autumn morning today! I started my day watching the Saptami pooja at Ramakrishna math in Belur (west Bengal) which was streaming live in YouTube. This year it is a bit different kind of pooja but nonetheless it felt very divine to wake up to the chants for Durga Ma.
I am going to talk about a 15 minute breakfast which is both healthy and hearty. It can brighten up your morning with all the necessary goodness. It is called breakfast hash with eggs.
Quoting Wikipedia - "Hash is a culinary dish consisting of chopped meat, potatoes, and fried onions. The name is derived from French: hacher, meaning "to chop". It originated as a way to use up leftovers."
I used to eat and love hash brown potatoes while I was travelling in the States. It was pretty much a morning staple across all the hotels I had stayed. And that is where I had developed a love for this dish. Though the hash brown is a very different recipe and much more calorie loaded. The one I am talking about today is a very simple version and mostly made in the homes. It is just a no fuss, flavorful breakfast recipe which you can try when you are not in mood of anything elaborate. Mostly it is my idea of a lazy weekend breakfast.
I had read it somewhere it is not really a hash until something gets charred. So I have incorporated a lot of easy charring without any oven on a gas top. it adds a very nice smoky aroma to the overall hash and I just love it.
The interesting and non conventional addition I have made is the charred garlic. in most traditional recipes of breakfast hash this is not how it is made. But trust me charred whole garlic with potatoes and eggs are the best thing in the whole world. The beautiful burst of flavors in your mouth will testify my claim any day. So without any further ado lets jump straight in to the recipe.
