4-5 tablespoons fat of your choice, I prefer a combination of duck and butter but anything works
1 large sweet potato or yam, ½" dice
½ a large green bell pepper (I used red in the photo but I prefer to use green), diced
½ a large yellow onion, diced
OPTIONAL: ½ cup delicata squash thinly sliced and seeded, it's delicious and probably my favorite squash but not a necessary part the recipe
1½ cups zucchini, diced
salt and pepper to taste
Preparation Instructions
Heat your fat in a medium skillet over medium heat.
Add the potatoes, onion, pepper and squash if using.
Sprinkle with salt and toss to coat in the fat. Cook slowly, tossing every few minutes. The key here is to move it as little as possible without letting it stick or burn. This helps develop the sweet caramelization.
Once everything is soft and pretty cooked, add the zucchini and bump the heat up to medium high, keep a close eye on it now, with all those lovely sugars it will burn easily, so now it is ok to keep it moving.
Cook just long enough for the zucchini to soften, sprinkle with pepper.
Serve topped with a fried egg.
