Method

5 steps · about 35 min
  1. Put the potato cubes in a saucepan of cold water, bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes until just tender at the edges. Drain well and leave to steam dry in the colander for 5 minutes.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes in a single layer and cook for 5 minutes without stirring until golden underneath, then turn and cook for another 5 minutes.
  3. Add the onion and capsicum and cook for 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until softened. Stir in the garlic, smoked paprika, iodised salt and pepper for 30 seconds, then the spinach until just wilted.
  4. Make four hollows in the hash and crack an egg into each. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and cook for 4–6 minutes until the whites are completely set and the yolks are cooked to your liking; cook yolks firm for anyone pregnant, very young, elderly or unwell.
  5. Scatter with parsley and serve straight from the pan, two eggs per person.
