Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 1/2 pound red beets
  • 1/2 pound sweet potatoes
  • 1 pound bulk not in casings country sausage (mine was flavored with "extra sage")
  • 1 medium yellow onion chopped
  • kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 3 Tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley plus more for garnish
  • Optional and only if needed up to 1 cup chicken stock

Instructions

  • Set the oven to 375F.
  • Scrub the potatoes, beets and sweet potatoes and dry them off. Poke holes in the skins in a few places with a fork or the tip of a knife.
  • Roast the vegetables until easily pierced with a knife. The time will differ depending on the size of the vegetables.
  • For me, my sweet potatoes were done first, followed by the Yukon Golds and lastly by the beets.
  • Start checking the smaller vegetables at 45 minutes, and then go from there.
  • Let the vegetables cool slightly and then slit the skins with a sharp knife. When cool enough to handle, peel off the skins--they should come right off.
  • *If you'd like, wear disposable gloves when peeling the beets to prevent your hands from getting all red.
  • Dice the vegetables in about 1/2" dice. The potatoes will be especially soft, so don't worry if you don't get nice, even cuts. This is a rustic dish. Set the vegetables aside.
  • Heat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage, chopped onion and about a teaspoon of kosher salt and as much freshly ground black pepper as you like.
  • Cook together, breaking up the sausage, until the meat is well-browned and the onions are completely soft. Drain off all but about 1 Tablespoon of fat.
  • Add the diced sweet potatoes and beets, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Gently fold the vegetables together with the sausage and onions to warm the vegetables through.
  • If the mixture seems a bit dry to you, add some chicken stock. Mine had plenty of moisture from the roasted vegetables, so I didn't add any.
  • Stir in the Yukon Golds last (to preserve their color) along with the minced parsley. Allow the hash to cook another 5-6 minutes without stirring so it gets a bit crispy on the bottom.
  • Serve garnished with more minced parsley.
  • Enjoy!
