Beet and Kale Potato Hash With Baked Eggs

Prep the ingredients for this veggie-packed breakfast dish the night before β and all you need to do is throw it together in a skillet for a brunch thatβs done before you even have your first cup of coffee. The eggs are baked in ramekins in a water bath with just a touch of cream for rich, decadent eggs that are tastier (and much easier) than poached eggs. You can substitute simple fried eggs to save time, if you like.

Beet and Kale Potato Hash With Baked Eggs
Ingredients
- 8 oz. (227g) small golden potatoes
- 8-oz. (227g) package roasted beets (or can roast your own the night before)
- 4 cup lacinato kale, leaves torn, center ribs discarded (about 1/2 bunch)
- 4 green onions, chopped
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup (60g) heavy cream
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Directions
The night before, cook the potatoes. Place the potatoes in a microwave-safe dish, add 1/2 cup water, cover, and cook until tender when pierced with a fork, 4β5 minutes. Drain, cut into bite-size pieces, and refrigerate until ready to use. While the potatoes are cooking, cut the beets into 1/2-inch pieces, cover, and refrigerate. Prepare the kale and chop the green onions; store in separate containers.
The next morning, preheat the oven to 350Β°F (180ΒΊC). Spray four 6-oz. (177ml) oven-safe ramekins or custard dishes with cooking spray. Break 1 egg into each ramekin and sprinkle evenly with a few pinches of salt and pepper. Spoon the cream evenly over the eggs. Place the ramekins in a 13-by-9-inch baking pan and add hot water to a depth of 1 1/2 inches (3.8cm). Bake for 20β25 minutes, or until the whites are just set.
Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the kale and cook, tossing with tongs, until tender, about 4 minutes. Push the kale to one side of the pan and add the potatoes and beets. Cook, without stirring, until the potatoes begin to brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic powder, salt, and pepper and toss everything together with a spatula, continuing to cook until the vegetables are heated through, about 4 minutes more. Keep warm.
When the eggs are done, carefully remove the baking dish from the oven. Take the eggs out of the water bath and run a knife around the edges of the ramekins to release the eggs. Divide the hash between 4 plates. Using a large spoon, remove the eggs from the ramekins and place them on top of the hash.
