The Method

1
Heat the Jersey butter in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
2
Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
3
Add the diced Jersey Royal potatoes and carrots to the pan. Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, cumin, and chili flakes (if using).
4
Cook, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are tender and lightly browned.
5
Stir in the fresh thyme and Jersey milk. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the milk to absorb and create a slightly creamy texture.
6
While the hash is cooking, fry the eggs in a separate pan to your liking. Sunny-side up or over-easy works well.
7
Divide the potato and carrot hash between four plates. Top each portion with a fried egg and garnish with fresh parsley.
8
Serve immediately.

Chef's Tips

For a richer flavor, use Jersey salted butter and adjust the added salt accordingly.

Add other seasonal vegetables such as kale or chard for added nutrients and flavor.

If you have leftover roasted vegetables, you can use them to save time. Add them during the last 5-10 minutes of cooking.

Serve with a side of crusty bread for soaking up the runny egg yolk.
