Recipe: Ham Heaven's Heavenly Hash

HAM HEAVEN'S HEAVENLY HASH

2 cups ground cooked ham
2 cups potatoes, cooked and chopped (or thawed frozen shredded hash brown potatoes)
2 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed
1 medium green pepper, chopped (1 cup)
1 small onion, chopped
3 tablespoons butter, divided use
4 eggs

TO PREPARE THE HASH:
In a mixing bowl, stir ham, potatoes, green pepper and onion together.

Heat a large heavy skillet or griddle over medium heat. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet or generously butter a large griddle; spread skillet evenly with hash mixture or mound onto a griddle and flatten slightly. Cook over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes or till brown; turn occasionally.

TO COOK THE EGGS:
Meanwhile, melt remaining butter in a large skillet over medium heat or use the same griddle. Add eggs; cook till whites are just set. Turn and cook for 1 to 2 minutes for soft eggs, 3 to 4 minutes for firm. Yolks should be just set.

TO SERVE:
Spoon 1/4 of the hash onto each warm plate; top with an egg "over easy."

Note from source: High rise buildings may dwarf Ham Heaven, but the Detroit eatery's fare is big on flavor. As you might guess, many menu items feature ham, including this colorful potato dish.
