Ingredients :

  • 4 cups Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 8 ounces Spanish chorizo, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Method :

  1. Boil the potato cubes in salted water for 5 minutes until just tender, then drain and pat dry thoroughly.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add the sliced chorizo and cook for 3-4 minutes until the fat renders and the edges are slightly crispy.
  4. Add the diced onions to the skillet and sauté with the chorizo until softened, about 5 minutes.
  5. Increase heat to medium-high, add the parboiled potatoes, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika to the pan.
  6. Cook the mixture for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Recipe Notes :

  • Chef’s Tip: Use a wide skillet to ensure the potatoes have enough surface area to brown evenly rather than steaming.
  • Variation: Add a handful of baby spinach or kale at the very end until just wilted for added greens.
  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheat in a skillet to crisp back up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use raw potatoes instead of parboiling?

Yes, but you will need to increase the cooking time significantly and cover the pan for the first 10 minutes to ensure the centers cook through.

Is this hash gluten-free?

This recipe is naturally gluten-free, provided your chorizo is certified as gluten-free by the manufacturer.

Can I add eggs to this recipe?

Yes, you can crack eggs directly over the finished hash and cover the skillet until the whites are set for a complete breakfast meal.
