SWEET POTATO, BACON AND APPLE HASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, add the sweet potatoes, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, to taste. Toss to coat and arrange them on a baking sheet. Roast the sweet potatoes until they are soft but not mushy, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and reserve.
• Coat a large saute pan with olive oil. Add the bacon and put the pan over medium heat. When the bacon has started to get crispy and brown, add the onions, season with salt and saute until the onions are very soft and aromatic. Add the apples and the scallion whites and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the sweet potatoes, and saute until the sweet potatoes are cooked through and starting to become crispy, about 7 to 8 minutes.
• Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with the scallion greens and pumpkin seeds.
• Fantastico!

SWEET-POTATO HASH WITH BACON

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Transfer to paper towels, reserving fat in skillet.
• Add onions, bell pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened. Stir in potatoes and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender and starting to brown, 10 to 14 minutes. Stir in thyme, bacon, and salt and pepper to taste.

BACON AND SWEET POTATO HASH

Steps:

• Chop sweet potatoes into small squares. You can either peel them or keep the skin on.
• Place sweet potato squares in a pot, cover them in cold water, and cook them on high heat until the water starts boiling. Once it starts to boil, turn the heat down to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes.
• When you can poke the sweet potatoes easily with a fork, but they wouldn't be easy to mash ("al dente"), they are done.
• Drain sweet potatoes and then shock them with cold water (run cold water over the colander), put them on a paper towel, and blot off excess water.
• Take a pan and put it on medium high heat, coat the pan with extra virgin olive oil, and then put the bacon on it.
• Cook bacon for 5-7 minutes, flipping occasionally, until it's cooked through, but not too crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan, but leave the fat.
• Now, add the sweet potatoes to the pan, frying them in the bacon fat, turning occasionally with a spatula or wooden spoon. After it starts to brown, add the scallions, bacon, paprika, salt and pepper, and mix it all up.

SWEET POTATO HASH WITH BACON AND MELTED ONIONS

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.
