Ingredients

4 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes
2 cups finely chopped baby spinach
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 15-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed
1 cup chopped zucchini
4 large eggs

Preparation

Combine potatoes, spinach, onion, ginger, curry powder and salt in a large bowl.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potato mixture and press into a layer. Cook, without stirring, until crispy and golden brown on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-low. Fold in chickpeas and zucchini, breaking up chunks of potato, until just combined. Press back into an even layer. Carve out 4 “wells” in the mixture. Break eggs, one at a time, into a cup and slip one into each indentation. Cover and continue cooking until the eggs are set, 4 to 5 minutes for soft-set yolks.
