🥘 Classic Hamburger Hash (Step-by-Step Recipe)
🛒 Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 3–4 medium potatoes (peeled and diced small)
- 1 small onion (finely chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 bell pepper (optional, diced)
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil or butter
- 1 cup beef broth (or water + bouillon cube)
- 1 tsp salt (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika (optional but adds great flavor)
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme or Italian seasoning
- Optional: shredded cheese, chopped parsley for topping
🔥 Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Prepare the ingredients
Start by washing, peeling, and dicing your potatoes into small cubes. Try to keep them uniform so they cook evenly. Chop your onion, garlic, and bell pepper so everything is ready before cooking.
Step 2: Brown the ground beef
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until it’s fully browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
- Once browned, drain excess fat if needed (this helps avoid a greasy dish).
- Set the beef aside in a bowl.
Step 3: Sauté the vegetables
In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of oil or butter.
Add:
- chopped onions
- garlic
- bell pepper (if using)
Cook for about 3–5 minutes until the onions become soft and fragrant. This step builds the flavor base of the dish.
