In anitisipation of breakfast

A splendid breakfast idea Crispy Hash Breakfast Skillet (by Sally Baker).

I removed bacon and cheese from ingredients to better suit my taste.
I am in favour of crushed red pepper flakes and would use them rather than ground black pepper. But otherwise it's perfect.

Perfect hash 
Immediately after shredding the potatoes, place them into a large bowl lined with paper towels and squeeze the heck out of them with more paper towels on top. Grab more paper towels if you need to and just keep squeezing. Alternatively, you could shred the potatoes onto a kitchen towel, wrap them up, and squeeze them out over the sink.

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes (or sweet potatoes)
  • 1 large bell pepper, chopped (I used 1/2 of a red and 1/2 of a green)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 4 large eggs
  • chopped fresh or dried parsley (optional)
