  • 3 ounces roasted red peppers
  • 1 cup vegetable broth

Chef's Tip
If you're cooking this dish for 4 people, we suggest poaching the additional 4 eggs while the rest cook with the hash: Bring a medium sauce pot of lightly salted water to a boil with 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar. Reduce to a simmer. Crack 1 egg into a small bowl or mug. Using a slotted spoon, swirl the water to make a gentle whirlpool. Slide the egg into the whirlpool. Repeat with the remaining eggs. Cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still soft, 3 to 5 minutes. If you prefer firmer yolks, cook for 2 minutes longer. Using the slotted spoon, transfer the eggs to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.

Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep and cook the vegetables

  • Scrub or peel the potatoes; cut the potatoes into ¼-inch pieces.
  • Trim the root ends from the leek; cut the leek in half lengthwise, then crosswise into enough thin half-moons to measure 1 cup [2 cups]. Rinse well.
  • Scrape off any seeds from the roasted red peppers; thinly slice the peppers.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the leek, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring often, until the potatoes and leek start to soften, 4 to 6 minutes.
Stir in the roasted red peppers, 1 cup [1¼ cups] vegetable broth, and the spinach (the spinach in batches if needed) and cook until the spinach has wilted and the liquid has thickened slightly, about 1 minute.
While the vegetables cook, prepare the ciabatta.

2

Toast the ciabatta

  • Cut the ciabatta in half horizontally.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Working in batches if needed, place the ciabatta, cut sides down, and cook until lightly browned and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate, cut sides up, sprinkle with as much chili spice blend as you like, and season with salt and pepper. Add more oil between batches if needed.

3

Cook the eggs

In the pan with the vegetables, with the back of a spoon, form 4 [for 4 servings, see Chef’s Tip] wells in the vegetables and crack an egg into each well. Sprinkle with the feta. Cover and cook until the whites have set and the yolks are slightly runny, 3 to 5 minutes. If you prefer firmer yolks, cook for 1 to 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Carefully transfer the pan with the baked eggs to the table and invite everyone to serve themselves. Serve the ciabatta on the side.
