Pastrami and Potato Hash with Fried Eggs image

Yield Serves 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes (about 4 large), scrubbed, cut into 1" pieces
1/2 pound winter squash (such as acorn, butternut, or kabocha), peeled, cut into 1" pieces
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
2 leeks, white and pale-green parts only, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 pound pastrami or any leftover braised meat, cut or shredded into bite-size pieces
4 large eggs
1/4 cup sliced chives
3/4 cup sour cream (optional)

Steps:

Heat butter and 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add potatoes and winter squash and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender, 25-30 minutes.
Add leeks and garlic to hash and season with salt and pepper. Using the back of a spoon or a spatula, lightly smash vegetables. Add pastrami and cook, stirring occasionally, until meat is warmed through and flavors have melded, 10-12 minutes.
Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Carefully crack eggs into skillet one at a time and season with salt and pepper. Cook until whites are set and slightly puffed but yolks are still runny, about 2 minutes.
Divide hash among shallow bowls and top each with an egg; scatter chives over top. Serve with sour cream alongside, if desired.
