Ultimate Breakfast Bowl
This fully-loaded breakfast bowl is an amazing way to start your day, but it’s also satisfying enough to be served for lunch or dinner if you don’t love eating first thing.
For the crispiest hash possible, we cook grated potatoes rösti-style in a pan, then break them up into bite-sized pieces prior to serving, to bring some complementary crunch to the other components of the dish.

How to Make It
Ingredients
Hash
- 2 large russet potatoes, scrubbed and grated
- 1 small yellow onion, peeled and grated
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tbsp salted butter, divided
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Eggs
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 4 large eggs
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Assembly
- 1 pkg (9 oz / 255 g) cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 ripe avocados, pitted and thinly sliced
- Za’atar, sour cream and microgreens, for serving
Instructions
- For the hash, using a clean kitchen towel, squeeze out as much liquid as possible from potatoes and onion. Transfer to a large bowl, then add egg and salt. Season with freshly ground pepper. Using a fork, stir until egg is incorporated and mixture is fully combined.
- Melt 2 tbsp butter with oil in a large non-stick frying pan set over medium-high heat. Scrape in potato-mixture, firmly pressing down with a heatproof spatula, to fill the pan in an even layer. Cook, occasionally pressing down with spatula, until underside is crisp and deep golden-brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Gently slide potato round out of the pan, onto a large plate or cutting board. Carefully set pan upside down, over hash, then in one quick motion, flip over to invert hash back into the pan, lightly shaking to fit. Return to heat, pressing with spatula to ensure good contact with the pan. Cube remaining 1 tbsp butter and dot around the edges of the potato, gently shaking to allow melted butter to move underneath. Continue cooking until underside is crisp and deep golden-brown, 5 to 7 more minutes. Gently slide hash onto same plate or cutting board and set aside.
- For the eggs, add oil to same pan and return to medium-high heat. Once shimmering, crack in eggs. Cover with a lid or foil and continue cooking until whites are set with crisp edges but yolks are still soft, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, then season with salt and freshly ground pepper.
- To assemble, using a spoon, break up potato hash into irregular bite-sized pieces and divide among 4 bowls. Layer with tomatoes, avocado and eggs. Sprinkle with za’atar and top with sour cream and microgreens. Serve immediately.
