Total Time: 40 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes, diced
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray.
- Wash and dice the potatoes into small, uniform cubes (approximately 1/2 inch). Pat the potato cubes dry with a clean kitchen towel to ensure crispy roasting.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning.
- Spread the seasoned potato cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to allow potatoes to roast and become crispy.
- Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring once halfway through to ensure even browning and crispiness.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Spread the fresh spinach leaves over the roasted potatoes, allowing the heat to slightly wilt the spinach.
- Create four small wells in the potato and spinach mixture, carefully crack an egg into each well.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until egg whites are set and yolks are cooked to your preference.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Serve hot directly from the baking sheet, ensuring each serving gets a roasted potato, spinach, and egg portion.
Tips
- Potato Perfection: Always pat your potato cubes dry before roasting to ensure maximum crispiness. Moisture is the enemy of a crisp potato!
- Even Seasoning: Use a large mixing bowl to toss potatoes with oil and seasonings, ensuring every cube is evenly coated for maximum flavor.
- Oven Spacing Matters: Spread potatoes in a single layer without overcrowding to achieve that golden, crispy exterior.
- Egg Doneness Hack: For perfect eggs, watch the whites carefully. If you prefer runny yolks, remove the dish when whites are just set.
- Fresh is Best: Use fresh, farm-fresh eggs and crisp spinach for the most vibrant flavors and best nutritional punch.
- Make-Ahead Tip: You can partially prepare this dish by roasting potatoes in advance and adding eggs just before serving to save morning preparation time.
- Customize Your Hash: Feel free to add extra vegetables like bell peppers or onions, or sprinkle with cheese for added richness.
