Gordon Ramsay Leftover Roast Beef Hash - recipe card
Print Recipe

Transform your leftover roast beef into a crave-worthy hash with crispy potatoes, sweet bell peppers, and tender beef, all topped with a perfectly runny fried egg. This savory, satisfying dish is ideal for a hearty breakfast or brunch, and it comes together in one skillet with minimal fuss. The key is to let the potatoes get golden and crunchy before adding the beef, so it stays juicy and flavorful.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 large onion, finely diced (about 1 cup)
  • 1 large red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and diced (about 1 cup)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1.5 pounds cooked roast beef, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 4 cups)
  • 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice (about 6 cups)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prep all ingredients before you start cooking: dice the onion, bell pepper, and potatoes; mince the garlic; and cube the roast beef. Having everything ready ensures the hash cooks evenly and prevents burning, as this dish moves quickly once the pan is hot.
  2. In a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet or cast-iron pan, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat until the butter foams and the oil shimmers. Add the diced onion and bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  3. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the diced potatoes, spreading them into an even layer. Season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Cook without stirring for 4-5 minutes, then stir and continue cooking for 10-12 minutes more, stirring every 3-4 minutes, until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp on the outside and tender when pierced with a knife. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning; if they brown too quickly, reduce to medium.
  4. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the cubed roast beef, smoked paprika, dried thyme, and Worcestershire sauce. Toss to coat evenly. Set aside.
  5. Once the potatoes are cooked, add the seasoned roast beef to the skillet. Stir to combine with the potatoes and vegetables. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is heated through and slightly crisped at the edges. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  6. Use the back of a spoon to create four shallow wells in the hash mixture. Crack one egg into each well. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook over medium-low heat for 4-6 minutes, until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Alternatively, if you prefer a baked finish, transfer the skillet to a preheated 375°F (190°C) oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, until eggs are set to your liking.
  7. Remove from heat and let rest for 1 minute. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, if using. Serve hot, dividing the hash and one egg per person.

Notes

Storage: Store leftover hash (without eggs, if possible) in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freezing is not recommended, as potatoes become mushy upon thawing. Reheating: Reheat in a skillet over medium heat until hot, about 5 minutes, or in the microwave on high for 1-2 minutes. If reheating with eggs, it’s best to remove eggs first and reheat separately. For best results, cook eggs fresh when serving leftovers.
