Fried Egg With Asparagus Potato Hash Food

SPRING VEGETABLE HASH WITH FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Fill a medium saucepan with cold water, and add potatoes. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Add carrots, and continue cooking until vegetables are just tender, 10 minutes more. Remove from heat, drain vegetables, and set them aside until cool enough to handle. Cut potatoes and carrots into 1/2-inch cubes.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon butter and oil over medium heat. Add onion, and cook until transparent and golden at edges, about 10 minutes. Add red peppers, and cook, stirring another 10 minutes, or until soft. Add half the thyme and rosemary. Add potatoes and carrots, and mix well. Cook over medium heat, stirring only occasionally, until a golden crust forms on potatoes, about 15 minutes.
• Cut off asparagus tips, and cut remaining tender parts into 1/2-inch lengths. Discard woody ends. Add tips and pieces, remaining thyme and rosemary, and stock to skillet, and cook a few more minutes, until stock reduces and thickens slightly and asparagus is tender. Season to taste with salt and plenty of pepper. Transfer to a serving platter; keep warm.
• Meanwhile, heat butter to taste in a clean skillet, and fry eggs. Serve eggs on a bed of hash, and sprinkle with scallions.

ASPARAGUS-POTATO HASH WITH GOAT CHEESE AND EGGS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. In a large (12-inch) ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Add the potatoes, spreading them out into an even layer, and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally and scraping the bottom of the pan, until potatoes are nicely browned, 7 to 9 minutes.
• Lower the heat to medium, add the fennel and leek, and cook, tossing occasionally, until leeks are translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. If the skillet looks dry at any point, add a splash of olive oil.
• Add the asparagus, along with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few more grinds of black pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the asparagus, fennel and potatoes are tender, about 5 minutes.
• Off the heat, add the lemon juice and toss, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
• Use a spoon to create 4 small hollows in the hash. Carefully crack an egg into each, season the eggs with salt and pepper and bake for 5 to 7 minutes, until the egg whites are just set. (Don't overcook.)
• Sprinkle with goat cheese, herbs, fennel fronds and lemon zest, if using. Sprinkle with additional lemon juice, if desired, and a pinch of salt, and serve hot. (A spatula works best for serving.)

PAN-ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH A CRISPY FRIED EGG

Steps:

• For the gremolata: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs and olive oil and toast, stirring often with a wooden spoon until golden brown. Place in a small bowl and while still hot, add the lemon zest, red pepper flakes and salt. Mix together and cool the mixture to room temperature. Stir in the parsley and cheese.
• For the asparagus: Wipe the pan with a clean dish towel. Place over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Add the asparagus and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Cook, stirring and flipping often with tongs until the asparagus is bright green, cooked through and slightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Divide the asparagus among four serving plates. To the same pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and place over medium-high heat. Crack 2 of the eggs into the pan, being careful as it may splatter, sprinkle with salt and reduce the heat slightly and cook until the edges are light brown and crispy and the whites are just set, 2 to 3 minutes. The yolk should still be runny. Repeat for the remaining 2 eggs. Using a slotted spatula, slide an egg on each plate. Sprinkle each dish with the breadcrumb gremolata and a drizzle of olive oil if desired.

HAM AND SPINACH HASH WITH FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with 2 turns of the pan of extra-virgin olive oil, about 2 tablespoons, and 2 tablespoons of butter. While the pan is getting hot and the butter is melting, cut the potatoes in half and then thinly slice them, add to the hot skillet and season with salt, pepper, thyme and the crushed red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring every now and then, for about 10 minutes or, until potatoes have browned and are tender. Add the onion and the ham and continue to cook for 3 to 4 minutes
• Preheat another skillet over medium high heat with 2 tablespoons of butter. Once the butter has melted and the bubbles have subsided, crack extra-large eggs into the pan, season with salt and pepper and fry to desired doneness.
• While the eggs are frying, finish off the hash by adding the roughly chopped spinach and basil to the potatoes. (Defrosted frozen spinach and some pesto would be added in at the same point if using substitutions.) Toss to wilt and warm the spinach. Sprinkle the hash with tomatoes and cheese and remove from the heat. Transfer the ham and spinach hash to plates. Top each portion with a single fried egg or arrange the fried eggs evenly over the platter.
