Potato hash, amongst a few other dishes, is one of my favorite weekday meals to make. It’s perfect to make either if you just want to throw something together with what you have at home, if you need to make a fridge clean out or when you just lack inspiration to come up with anything else to eat. Because my philosophy is that adding everything you like to a pan can’t go wrong and has to turn out good! Do you agree? A potato hash is also so easy to vary, so it doesn’t have to become boring. Just by varying sweet potatoes with regular ones, using different kind of beans/meat/fish or throwing in different vegetables will make the dish feel like something completely different. Another great thing with potato hash is that it’s perfect to make out of leftovers you have in the fridge, giving them a make over by throwing together a delicious hash. This dish is really great to make for both lunch, dinner or for meal prep purpose. It is both vegetarian and gluten free, but can easily also be made vegan.

A few tips:

  • Don’t cut the potatoes into too big pieces, then the cooking time will increase. Make them approximately bite sized.
  • Fry the potatoes until they’re almost soft and add in the rest of the ingredients just when a few minutes of the cooking time remain.
  • You can easily adapt and adjust this dish according to taste and what you have at home.
  • Use regular potatoes instead of sweet potatoes. Vary the black beans with white beans, kidney beans, chickpeas. Add tofu, chicken or meat to the dish. Use different kind of cheeses to top it with. Add carrots, beetroots, leek, onion, broccoli, cauliflower etc depending on what you like or have at home.
