  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

  • Stir in chopped bell pepper and onion; cook for another 5–6 minutes until tender.

  • Add minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook 1–2 minutes until fragrant.

  • Make four small wells in the hash; crack one egg into each well.

  • Cover skillet and cook 4–5 minutes, or until eggs reach desired doneness.

  • Top with cheese such as feta or cheddar for a creamy twist.

  • Reheat leftovers in a skillet or microwave. Best enjoyed fresh, especially the eggs.
