Ingredients Needed for Sweet Potato Hash

To make this simple and nutritious sweet potato hash, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 2 medium-sized sweet potatoes – peeled and diced
• 1 onion – roughly chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic – minced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil – or avocado oil
• Salt and pepper – to taste
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika – for a smoky flavor
• ½ teaspoon ground cumin – adds a warm, earthy touch
• Fresh parsley – for garnish
• Optional toppings: fried or perfectly poached eggs, avocado slices, or hot sauce

How to Make Sweet Potato Hash: Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes – Begin by peeling and dicing the 2 medium sweet potatoes into small cubes, about 1/2 inch in size. This helps them cook evenly and faster.

2. Cook the Sweet Potatoes – Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced sweet potatoes and cook them for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let the sweet potatoes cook until they’re tender and lightly browned on the outside.

3. Add the Vegetables – Once the sweet potatoes are cooked through, add the chopped onion, and minced garlic to the skillet. Stir everything together and continue cooking for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

4. Season the Hash – Season the sweet potato hash with smoked paprika, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir the spices in well to evenly coat the vegetables.

5. Garnish and Serve – Once the vegetables are cooked and seasoned to your liking, remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and extra flavor.

RECIPE NOTES: If you like, you can also top your hash with a fried or poached egg, slices of creamy avocado, or a drizzle of hot sauce for some extra spice.
