Breakfast Anyone?

Almost Healthy Potato "Hash" by Me :)

1) Brown & crumble 1 lb. mild country sausage [w/o MSG!, organic is ideal]; drain but retain oil separately & put sausage aside

2) In the same pan, use a little of the sausage grease to cook and lightly brown (but not fry or burn!):
1 onion diced small
2 large cloves of garlic mashed

3) Add a ton of red potatoes (maybe 6-9? I do about 2 per person) diced really small (as in 1/2" cubes or smaller; they cook faster this way which maintains their shape before the starch gets mushy). You may need some more grease (or butter) to make sure they don't stick.

4) Brown them on medium heat with a cover just tilted just enough to let some steam escape. Leave them ALONE for 5 min. at a time to let them really cook through and brown nicely. Then, given them a turn with a spatula. Repeat until cooked through. If they are not cooked through in 15-20 min., add a few tablespoons of water to steam them a bit more.

5) When the potatoes are almost done, add more sea salt than you think is necessary (more salt is always good on hash-browns!), grate some black pepper, and sprinkle a thin layer of paprika over it all. Toss a bit with the spatula. Add the sausage back in.

6) When it's all warmed through and the potatoes are soft (but not mush!); it's done

7) Icing on the cake additions: Sprinkle a flavorful, raw milk, aged cheddar cheese on top and/or fry an egg (free-range are sunny-yellow and flavorful) and put it on top.

Enjoy!
