Potato Hash

As promised earlier I will write abit about the food I use my meat balls on. You can already find couple of recipes from this blog for them.

Potato Hash is very traditional Finnish or Swedish food depends how you want to see it. It is simple to make and when done right it is a really delicious dinner.
This recipe serves 1 very hungry Finn.

Ingredients:

• 2 Large Potatoes
• 1 Onion
• 4-5 Meat balls
• 50g Bacon
• Butter
• 1 Egg
• Salt

Chop the potatoes to small cubes and do the same to the onion. Heat up 2 frying pans and melt some butter on both. Fry the potato cubes on one pan and start frying the onion on the other. Once the onion takes a bit of color throw in sliced bacon and the meat balls. Fry both of them till nicely brown. Season the potatoes with bit of salt. Mix them together and serve on a plate.

The egg in this dish can be served in several ways. The traditional way is to separate the egg yolk and pour the yolk on top of the dish. The other way is to fry the egg till the egg white is tough, but the yolk should mostly stay liquid. Serve this fried egg on top of the dish.

Enjoy with cold lager.
