Instructions

Wash and peel 2 potatoes. Dice into 1/2-inch cubes. Rinse to remove some of the starch and dry with a paper towel.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm 2 tablespoons olive oil. When oil is hot, add diced potato and onion to the pan. Stir to coat in oil and let roast, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes. Potatoes should be starting to crisp. Add salt, paprika, garlic powder and pepper to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook another 5 minutes, until potatoes are crisp on the outside and just cooked through.

Break up salmon into the pan and stir. Turn off heat and let the heat of the pan warm up the salmon for about 3 minutes.

Transfer salmon and potato hash to plates, top with a sunny-up egg and garnish with fresh dill (optional).

Serve.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Cut Potatoes Uniformly 🥔
Dice potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes so they cook evenly and achieve crispy exteriors while staying tender inside. Uneven sizes lead to some pieces burning while others remain undercooked.
Dry Your Potatoes First 💧
Pat cut potatoes completely dry with paper towels before roasting to ensure maximum crispiness and better browning. Moisture prevents the Maillard reaction needed for golden, caramelized edges.
Flake Salmon Gently at the End 🐟
Add flaked salmon in the final 2-3 minutes of cooking to keep it tender and prevent it from breaking apart into tiny pieces. This preserves the salmon's delicate texture and visual appeal.
Toast Your Spices First 🌶️
Bloom the garlic powder and paprika in avocado oil for 30 seconds before adding potatoes to unlock deeper, more complex flavors. This small step significantly elevates the overall taste profile.
Create a Crispy Base Layer 🍳
Don't stir the hash for the first 4-5 minutes to allow a golden crust to form on the bottom—this adds texture contrast and rich flavor. Use a spatula to break it up gently, then let it crisp again.
