Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 10g unsalted butter
  • 200g winter greens (such as cabbage or leeks), finely sliced
  • 4 salad onions, finely sliced
  • 2 clove/s garlic, finely sliced
  • 75g pancetta, bacon lardons or pulled ham hock
  • 250g leftover roast potatoes, chopped into 1-2cm chunks
  • 125g crème fraîche, soft cheese or soured cream
  • 2 tsp mustard of your choice (gluten free, if needed), to taste
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 handful chopped herbs (such as chives, tarragon or parsley), to serve

Method

  1. Heat 1 tbsp oil and the butter in a large, nonstick, lidded frying pan. Add the greens with a pinch of salt and cook for 4-5 minutes over a medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until just softened. Stir in the salad onions and garlic; cook for a further 1-2 minutes. Tip out onto a plate and set aside. If using pancetta or bacon, add to the pan and fry for 5 minutes over a medium heat or until crispy (skip this stage if using ham hock). Use a slotted spoon to transfer to the plate with the veg.

  2. Drizzle the remaining 1⁄2 tbsp oil (if needed) into the same pan. Put the chopped potatoes in the pan and fry for 7-10 minutes over a medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp and golden; season. Lower the heat to medium-low and return the greens mixture to the pan with the crème fraîche (or soft cheese or soured cream), mustard and meat. Stir fry everything together for 1 minute until combined.

  3. Make 2 indentations in the hash and crack an egg into each. Cover with a lid and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks still soft. Season with freshly ground black pepper and scatter over the chopped herbs to serve.
