Here’s a simple and hearty ground beef and potato hash recipe:
Ingredients (Serves 2–3)
- 1/2 lb (225 g) ground beef
- 2 medium potatoes, diced into small cubes
- 1 small onion, chopped (optional, but adds flavor)
- 1–2 tbsp oil (vegetable or olive oil)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: garlic, bell peppers, paprika, or herbs
Instructions
1. Prepare the potatoes
- Peel (if desired) and dice the potatoes into small cubes.
- Parboil in salted water for 5–7 minutes until slightly tender, then drain. This ensures they cook evenly and get crispy.
2. Cook the beef
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart, until browned and fully cooked (about 5–7 minutes).
- Season with salt, pepper, and optional spices.
3. Cook the potatoes
- Push the beef to one side of the skillet and add another tbsp of oil.
- Add the potatoes (and onion/peppers if using) and fry, stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy (about 10–12 minutes).
4. Combine and serve
- Mix the beef and potatoes together, taste, and adjust seasoning.
- Serve hot as a breakfast, brunch, or hearty dinner.
💡 Tips:
- For extra crispiness, cook the potatoes without stirring for a few minutes before tossing.
- You can top with a fried egg for a classic breakfast hash.
If you want, I can make a lighter, liver-friendly version of this hash suitable for fatty liver, keeping it flavorful but lower in saturated fat. Do you want me to do that?
