Bacon Potato And Onion Hash Recipes

Steps:

• Prick potatoes several times each with a fork and microwave on high for 10 to 12 minutes. Cool potatoes until you can handle them and chop.
• Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with extra-virgin olive oil and butter. Add apples and onions and cook 5 minutes, add potatoes and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Crisp and brown the potatoes with apples and onions 5 minutes more, then serve.

Steps:

• Put onions in a large skillet, place over medium-low heat, and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, uncovered, reducing the heat to maintain a low simmer, about 20 minutes, until onions are soft and swimming in liquid.
• Tie the bay leaf, 3 sprigs thyme, peppercorns and garlic in a piece of cheesecloth. Add to onions along with butter, stir and cover (not too tightly, some steam should be allowed to escape). Cook slowly 30 to 35 minutes, until onions are meltingly tender and coated in butter. The mixture should look creamy at all times: if butter separates or if pan looks dry, stir in cold water 1 teaspoon at a time. Season to taste with salt. (Onions can be made up to 3 days in advance and refrigerated.)
• Cut bacon crosswise into thick matchsticks. Pour 2 tablespoons water into a medium saucepan and set over medium heat. Add bacon, reduce heat to low, and cook for 30 minutes. Bacon will render its fat and become golden, but not completely crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels. Pour off excess fat from pan, leaving a thick film on bottom to cook hash; reserve the extra fat.
• Heat oven to 200 degrees. Spread half of potatoes in pan, sprinkle with salt and add half the leaves of the remaining sprig of thyme. Cook undisturbed, over medium-low heat, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup melted onions and a quarter of the bacon and gently fold together until heated through. Transfer to an ovenproof serving bowl and keep warm. Repeat with remaining potatoes, a quarter of the bacon, another 1/2 cup onions (refrigerate leftover onions; they make a great sauce for fish) and remaining thyme leaves. Sprinkle hash with chives (if using) and remaining bacon. Serve hot, topped with eggs if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425ºF (220ºC).
• Cook bacon in a cast iron skillet until crisp.
• Remove any excess grease, if preferred.
• Add the potatoes and onion soup mix to the skillet and stir. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Bake in the skillet for 20-25 minutes, or until potatoes are cooked through.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients. Transfer to a greased 9-in. pie plate. Drizzle with butter; sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 350° until lightly browned, 35-45 minutes.

Steps:

• In a skillet (cast iron if available) cook bacon to render fat. Strain fat from bacon and set aside. Reserve bacon on paper towels. Use 2 tablespoons of bacon drippings to saute onions, garlic and bell peppers until soft. Add potatoes and cook until tender and crispy. Add reserved bacon and season to taste.

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the potato chunks and simmer until about halfway cooked, 4 to 5 minutes. (A knife shouldn't pierce the chunks easily; there should still be a little resistance in the center.) Drain and pat the potatoes very dry.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the bacon until crisp, 3 to 4 minutes, then remove to paper towels to drain.
• Increase the heat to medium high. Add the par-cooked potatoes to the skillet. Cook, tossing occasionally, until they begin to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the bell pepper, paprika and garlic powder and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the pepper just begins to wilt, about 3 minutes, adjusting the heat if the potatoes or peppers begin to burn. Add the scallion whites and cook until the potatoes are crisp and tender and everything is well browned, 3 to 4 minutes more.
• Sprinkle with the cooked bacon, scallion greens and blue cheese. Toss and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large frying pan and cook the potatoes over a low heat for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally.
• Add the garlic and bacon and increase the heat. Fry for 5-6 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the potatoes and bacon are golden.
• Add the onions and cook for 1 minute.
• Stir in the mustard and plenty of salt and pepper. Divide between four plates and keep warm.
• Half fill a small frying pan with water and bring to a simmer. Carefully break in the eggs and allow the water to come back to the boil. Simmer for 1 minute, then remove each egg using a slotted spoon.
• Top each plate of hash with a poached egg, sprinkle with black pepper and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a 13-inch saute pan over medium-high heat, add the bacon and olive oil. When the oil heats and the bacon begins to sizzle, add the sweet potatoes and spread out as much as possible to allow the potatoes to rest in the pan in 1 layer. Leave the potatoes to cook until a quick toss reveals browning on the side in contact with the pan, about 5 minutes. Continue to toss and let stand until most sides of the potatoes are golden and the bacon bits are crisp, 3 to 5 minutes longer. Then add the onions, garlic, jalapenos, cumin and season with a nice pinch of salt and a grind or 2 of pepper. Cook the same way, allowing everything to sit in the heat of the pan for a minute or 2. Taste and re-season if necessary.

Steps:

• Brown bacon in nonstick skillet, with ovenproof handle, 5 minutes.
• Transfer bacon to papertowel to drain.
• Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat.
• Add potato, onion and rosemary.
• Cover; lower heat; cook, turning slices, until tender, about 10 minutes.
• Whisk eggs, water, salt and pepper in bowl.
• Pour over potatoes.
• Stir in bacon.
• Sprinkle with paprika.
• Bake, uncovered, in 350 degree oven until set, 8 to 10 minutes.
