Food Memories

As long as I can remember, my father-in-law made roast. The next day, he would make hash from the left over roast, potatoes, onions, and carrots.  I do the same thing with our leftover roast.  However, there is some differences between my hash and his hash.

Differences

I don’t like cooking potatoes, onions, and carrots with my roast.  Instead I cook roasted potatoes.  When I last made the roast, I also made brown sugar carrots.

I’ve started to make extra roast, roasted potatoes, and brown sugar carrots.  I save the extras and use the ingredients so I can cook this dish quickly.

Recipe

Stars of the recipe:

• 2 to 3 c. cut up leftover roast (balsamic roast or easy roast) – Save 1/4 c. of the cooking broth
• 1 to 2 c. roasted potatoes, cut into smaller pieces or 2 c. frozen Southern hashbrowns
• 1 & 1/2 c. cut up carrots (I used already cooked brown sugar carrots.)
• 1 sm. onion, diced
• 1/4 c. ketchup

Steps:

1. Heat oil in a medium skillet on medium heat.  (If using raw carrots, add them at this time.)
2. Add the onions.  Allow to cook for about 5 minutes or until cooked through.
3. Add the potatoes, carrots, and roast.  Cook for 5 minutes.
4. Pour 1/4 c. of the cooking broth and ketchup into the skillet.  (This makes a gravy.)
5. Cook for 5 more minutes.
6. Serve and enjoy!

Some people like to eat a fried egg on top of their hash.  You might want to do that with your hash.  We don’t eat egg on our hash.
