Sweet potatoes are rich in nutrients like vitamin A, vitamin C, and fiber, making them a healthy option. When you add a cannabis infusion, the dish becomes not only a tasty treat but also a therapeutic one. Cannabis-infused dishes are known for their ability to offer relaxation and pain relief, and when combined with a well-balanced meal like sweet potato hash, it’s a great way to enjoy both flavor and wellness.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
2 large sweet potatoes (peeled and diced into small cubes)
1 medium onion (finely chopped)
1 red bell pepper (diced)
1 green bell pepper (diced)
3 garlic cloves (minced)
2 tablespoons of cannabis-infused olive oil (or cannabutter)
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Optional: 2 eggs for frying on top (optional, for a complete meal)
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Prepare Your Ingredients
Start by peeling and dicing your sweet potatoes into small, evenly sized cubes. Dice the onions, bell peppers, and mince the garlic. Set aside your cannabis-infused olive oil or cannabutter, depending on your preference.
2. Preheat the Skillet
In a large skillet, heat the cannabis-infused olive oil over medium heat. If you're using cannabutter, be sure to cook at a lower heat to prevent burning the butter.
3. Cook the Sweet Potatoes
Add the diced sweet potatoes to the skillet and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Allow the sweet potatoes to soften and develop a slight crisp.
4. Add the Vegetables
Once the sweet potatoes have softened, add the chopped onions, bell peppers, and minced garlic. Stir everything together, letting the vegetables cook until they are tender and the onions become translucent—about 5-7 minutes.
5. Season the Hash
Season the sweet potato hash with smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine the spices evenly throughout the hash. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
6. Finish Cooking
Cook the hash for another 5-10 minutes, allowing the sweet potatoes to become crispy on the edges. You can press the mixture down with a spatula for a more even, crispy texture.
7. Add Optional Eggs
If you want to turn this into a full meal, crack two eggs into the skillet and cook them to your liking—whether sunny-side-up or scrambled—right on top of the hash.
8. Garnish and Serve
Once the hash is crispy and fragrant, remove it from the heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve hot and enjoy!
Dosing Tips:
When making cannabis-infused dishes, it's important to know the potency of your cannabis-infused olive oil or butter. Start with a small portion to gauge the effects, especially if you’re serving it to guests. You can always adjust the dosage for future meals based on your preference.
