Hearty Burford Brown hash
Simple, one pan recipes are what’s needed when you’re feeding a hungry horde. Any good quality sausage will do but using something highly flavoured like merguez or chorizo marries beautifully with the rich flavours of Burford Brown eggs and peppery watercress.
This delicious recipe is an exclusive teaser from our fabulous cookbook, 'Eggstravaganza', available here, via our online Boutique store.
Method
Chop the potatoes into 2cm pieces. Place a large frying pan on a medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Fry the potatoes, stirring regularly, until they start to soften and turn slightly golden. Add the onion, chilli and a small pinch of salt, then continue to fry for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile squeeze the sausages out of their skins and add them to the pan, breaking up into pieces. Fry for a further 5-10 minutes or until turning golden. Scoop the sliced sprouts from the water and add to the frying pan. Mix everything together, season with salt and pepper and continue to fry until the sprouts are just cooked.
Make little divots in the hash and crack the eggs into them. Place a lid on the pan, turn the heat down to low – if the hash is catching – and steam for 5-10 minutes or until the eggs are cooked. Alternatively, you can fry the eggs separately and place them on top of the hash. Finish with watercress, chopped parsley and a light grating of Parmesan. Serve with Greek yoghurt, lemon wedges, salad, crusty bread or in comforting soft rolls.
