White Bean Hash
I love white beans, known as Great Northern beans, or you can use Cannelloni or White Kidney beans. This sounds like an excellent dish. You can use canned beans, drained and rinsed, or fresh cooked dry beans (my preference). I look forward to making and tasting this. Link to the Shortcut is listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 1 can Great Northern Beans, drained, rinses, or 1 1/2 cups cooked, (Shortcut)
- 4 slices bacon
- 2 leeks, trimmed, sliced, cleaned well, dry on paper towels
- 4-6 eggs, or as desired
- butter or bacon fat, if needed
Instructions
- Heat a non stick pan on medium heat, a cast iron pan would be ideal for this but is not required. When the pan is hot, add the bacon and cook until crispy, turning as needed. When cooked, remove to paper towels, leaving the bacon fat in the pan.
- To the pan, add the leeks, saute for 6-8 minutes or until starting to brown. If you need more fat in the pan, add butter or bacon fat as needed. While the leeks are cooking, chop the bacon.
- Add the bacon back to the pan along with the beans. Stir and cook for several minutes to heat the beans through until nice and hot.
- For the eggs, you have several options, you can cook the eggs in a separate pan, or to reduce clean up, just push the beans to the side and cook the eggs in the same pan, or just make some depressions in the beans and crack eggs into those. With the last method, after cracking in the eggs, cover with a lid to cook the eggs, set whites and runny yolk is the goal.
- Serve and enjoy.
