Roots n Leaves Hash

This recipe comes from the collaborative minds of Beast and Laurel. We had some greens that were needing cooked, and this is what came of it.

Ingredients:

3-4 tbsp oil
2 medium parsnips
1 rutabaga
1 turnip
5-6 small red potatoes
1 bunch swiss chard
1 small onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp smoked paprika
2 tsp oregano
Salt & pepper to taste
1 egg, fried
1 kielbasa  (or other smoked sausage)

Dice up all the root veg, and toss into a hot pan with the hot oil. Cook for 5 minutes. Add the herbs and seasonings. Cook for another 5 minutes, then add the sausage. Fry till the root veg and sausage are almost browned. Toss in the cut up swiss chard. Cook till everything is browned and crispy, stirring as needed so as to not burn.

Plate the veg mixture, topped with the fried egg. A little smoked Chipotle tabasco, some grated cheddar, a dash of ketsup.. yum!

For the vegetarian, fry the sausage in a separate pan, and add to the plate after the vegetables.
