This high-protein potato hash is a sophisticated take on a classic breakfast staple, combining the crunch of perfectly roasted potatoes with the rich flavour of hot-smoked fish. By roasting the thinly sliced potatoes in the upper part of the oven, you achieve a golden, shatteringly crisp texture that provides the perfect base for the savoury toppings. Whether you choose smoked salmon, trout, or whitefish, the smoky notes pair beautifully with the cool crème fraîche and the salty pop of fish roe.

Ideal for a leisurely weekend brunch or a nutritious midweek supper, this dish is as restorative as it is elegant. The addition of fresh dill and sharp red onion cuts through the richness, creating a balanced meal that feels special without requiring complex techniques. Serve this tray-bake hot from the oven to ensure the potatoes retain their signature crunch, making it a reliable favourite for any home cook seeking a satisfying, protein-packed meal.

How to make Sheet-Pan Potato Hash with Fixins

Back to contents

Place a rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 218°C. Toss potatoes in a large bowl with 60ml oil (using a bowl will help get the slices well coated, which means they’ll get super crisp in the oven). Season generously with salt.

Transfer potatoes to a rimmed baking sheet and spread out into an even layer (it’s fine to have them piled on top of each other; just keep them even). Roast, undisturbed, until browned and very crisp (top and bottom), 40–50 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.

Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Crack eggs into pan and fry, spooning oil over whites, until set, about 3 minutes.

Divide potatoes among plates and top each with an egg, some smoked fish, and crème fraîche. Spoon roe over and scatter some dill and onion on top.
