To create this mouth-watering sweet potato hash with eggs, you will need the following ingredients:

- 2 tbsp olive oil

- Fresh herbs (parsley or cilantro), for garnish
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to prepare the perfect sweet potato hash with eggs:
- Heat the Olive Oil: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. The olive oil adds a rich flavor and helps cook the vegetables evenly.
- Cook the Sweet Potatoes: Add the diced sweet potatoes to the skillet. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become tender. The sweet potatoes should be soft enough to be pierced with a fork but still hold their shape.
- Add Bell Pepper and Onion: Stir in the chopped bell pepper and diced onion. Cook for another 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened. The bell pepper adds a touch of sweetness, while the onion provides a savory depth of flavor.
- Season with Salt and Pepper: Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust according to your preference.
- Create Wells for Eggs: Make 4 wells in the sweet potato mixture using a spoon or spatula. Crack an egg into each well, ensuring that the eggs are evenly spaced.
- Cook the Eggs: Cover the skillet and cook until the eggs are set, about 5-7 minutes. The eggs should be cooked to your liking, whether you prefer them runny or fully set.
- Garnish and Serve: Once the eggs are cooked, garnish the dish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro. Serve immediately and enjoy the delicious flavors of this hearty meal.
