Chef John's Hamburger Hash image

Move over corned beef, because there's a new hash in town! If you like hash, you are going to love this version made with ground beef instead of corned. Making a hash is basically a 3-step process: frying your meat and potatoes, adding onions and mushrooms, and then adding quick-cooking vegetables like peppers. But take a look in the fridge and use any ingredients you'd like because in the game of hash, whoever has the most ingredients wins! Top with a cayenne-dusted poached egg and green onions if you'd like.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 large russet potatoes, peeled
1 tablespoon salted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound ground beef
salt to taste
¾ cup diced yellow onions
¾ cup diced button mushrooms
freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 pinch dried rosemary
½ cup diced red bell pepper
½ cup diced poblano pepper
½ cup thinly sliced green onions

Steps:

  • Cut a 1/4-inch slice off the bottom each potato so it sits flat on a cutting board. Cut some more 1/4-inch slices straight down and then cut potatoes into sticks. Turn sticks and cut across to create a uniform dice. Transfer to a bowl of cold water.
  • Combine butter and olive oil in a skillet over high heat until butter melts. Add ground beef and cook, breaking up with a flat-edge utensil, until crumbly, about 5 minutes.
  • Drain potatoes and add to the beef with a nice pinch of salt. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes just start to soften, 5 to 7 minutes. Smooth mixture in the skillet and press against the bottom of the pan to help everything get nice and crusty.
  • Stir in onions and mushrooms and add another pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions and mushrooms have softened up and taken on some beautiful color, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with black pepper, cayenne, and rosemary.
  • Add bell pepper, poblano pepper, and another pinch of salt. Cook until peppers are tender and the rest of the ingredients are dark and crispy, about 5 more minutes.
  • Stir in green onions and cook for a few more minutes. Remove from the heat and serve.

I thought this hamburger hash was just okay. The potatoes were a little too mushy for my taste.
