Ingredients

  • 8 oz smoked trout fillets, skin removed, flaked
  • 1 lb Yukon Gold potatoes, 1/2-inch diced
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 lemon, cut into wedges

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 lb 1/2-inch diced Yukon Gold potatoes and cook 5 minutes until barely tender. Drain well.

  2. 2

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the parboiled potatoes in a single layer and press down lightly. Cook without stirring for 5 minutes until a golden crust forms on the bottom.

  3. 3

    Flip the potatoes, add 1 small diced yellow onion and 1 diced red bell pepper, and cook another 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened and the potatoes are crisp all over.

  4. 4

    Push everything to the sides, add 2 minced garlic cloves to the center, and cook 30 seconds. Season with 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, and 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Stir to combine.

  5. 5

    Scatter 8 oz skin removed, flaked smoked trout fillets over the hash and gently fold in, keeping some large flakes intact. Cook 2 minutes until the trout is warmed through.

  6. 6

    Make wells in the hash and crack 2 large eggs into them. Cover the skillet and cook 3 to 4 minutes until the egg whites are fully set and the yolks are done to your liking.

  7. 7

    Garnish with 2 thinly sliced scallions and serve with 1/2 cut into wedges lemon on the side.

How do I know when Smoked Trout Hash with Eggs is done?

Go by the cues in the method rather than the clock. Step 5: cook until the trout is warmed through. Step 6: cook until the egg whites are fully set and the yolks are done to your liking.

Why fold instead of stir in Smoked Trout Hash with Eggs?

Step 5 reads: "Scatter 8 oz skin removed, flaked smoked trout fillets over the hash and gently fold in, keeping some large flakes intact." Folding keeps the air you just beat in. Stirring at step 5 would knock it out and the result would come out dense.
