Notes

  1. Equal size cubes. The sweet potatoes need to be cut into cubes that are almost identical in size for even cooking. This also holds true for the other ingredients as well.
  2. Fully cook the potatoes. For the best texture, make sure that the sweet potatoes are fully cooked before adding the eggs to the hash. 
  3. Watch the eggs. Once the eggs are added to the hash and put under the broiler you need to watch them closely so that they don’t overcook. 
  4. Leftover sweet potato hash will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days in an airtight container. To reheat, put it in the microwave for a few minutes on medium heat or reheat it in a skillet.
