POTATO & CHORIZO BREAKFAST HASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180ºC/gas 4.
• Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic, chop the chorizo, dice up the cooked potato and pick and finely chop the parsley.
• Gently fry the onion and garlic in a little oil in an ovenproof pan until the onion is soft. Add the chorizo and fry for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the potatoes and cook for 5 minutes more, then crack the eggs on top.
• Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake for 8 minutes, or until the egg white is set but the yolk is still runny.
• Sprinkle with sea salt, black pepper and the parsley, to serve.

SWEET POTATO, CHICKPEA & CHORIZO HASH

Steps:

• Boil the sweet potatoes for 8 mins until tender, then drain. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large ovenproof pan and cook the onion and chorizo for 5 mins until softened. Add the sweet potatoes and chickpeas and cook for 5 mins more. Roughly break the mixture up with a fork, then flatten it down lightly to form a cake. Cook for a further 8 mins, without stirring, until cooked through, crispy and golden on the bottom.
• Heat grill to high. Break the eggs onto the hash, season, then place the pan under the grill and cook for 2-3 mins until the whites are set. Sprinkle with chilli to serve.

CHORIZO HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Using a box grater or shredding blade of a food processor, shred the potatoes. Rinse until the water is clear. Drain. Dump the shredded potatoes onto a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze to remove all excess water. Add the shredded potato into a large mixing bowl along with the flour and eggs. Mix well.
• Cook the chorizo in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, breaking any lumps, until it begins to crumble and is cooked through. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chorizo-onion mixture to the shredded potatoes. Mix to combine.
• Heat about 1/4 inch of oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is sizzling hot, place the mixture in separate piles like pancakes. Cook until nicely browned on the bottom, then flip over and brown on the other side. It should take 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer hash browns to a paper-lined plate and drain. Season with 1/2 teaspoon pepper and serve immediately.

SMASHED POTATO-CHORIZO HASH

Steps:

• Position racks in the upper third and middle of the oven; preheat the broiler. Whisk the vinegar and sugar in a small bowl until dissolved. Stir in the red onion and set aside.
• Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the shishitos and asparagus with 1 tablespoon olive oil and a big pinch each of salt and pepper on a baking sheet.
• Drain the potatoes and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil and the paprika; season with salt and pepper. Spread out on a second baking sheet and smash the potatoes using the bottom of a glass. Broil the potatoes on the upper oven rack and the shishitos and asparagus on the middle rack until the potatoes are browned and the shishitos and asparagus are tender, 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook the chorizo in the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until browned, 5 minutes. Remove to a plate. Add 4 eggs to the skillet and cook until the whites are set, 3 to 4 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Divide the potatoes, shishitos and asparagus among plates. Top with the chorizo, red onion (drained) and fried eggs. Sprinkle with the parsley and paprika.

CHORIZO & KALE HASH WITH A FRIED EGG

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium frying pan, and add the chorizo and onion. Fry for about 8 mins, until the chorizo is golden and has released its orange oils, and the onion is soft.
• Turn up the heat, tip in the kale and stir-fry for 1 min until wilting. Stir in the potatoes, paprika and some seasoning. Fry everything together for another 5 mins or until the potatoes are hot through and the kale is tender. Scrape the bottom of the pan now and again for those all-important crispy bits.
• Meanwhile, fry or poach the eggs, then serve on top of the hash.
