Instructions
-
Prepare the Grill:
- Preheat the Ninja Woodfire Grill to 180°C.
- Add a splash of olive oil to the preheated flat plate.
-
Cook the Sausage:
Place the Boerewors sausage on the flat plate and cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 60°C (approximately 5-7 minutes). Remove and set aside.
-
Cook the Veggies:
Add the diced potatoes, bell pepper, and onion to the same plate. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook until softened, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
-
Combine Ingredients:
Slice the cooked Boerewors into bite-sized pieces and add back to the flat plate, mixing with the softened veggies.
-
Add Cheese and Eggs:
- Sprinkle grated mozzarella evenly over the hash.
- Create small wells in the mixture and crack the eggs into them.
-
Finish Cooking:
Cook with the lid open or closed, depending on your egg preference. This should take about 5-7 minutes, or until the eggs are done to your liking and the cheese is melted.
-
Garnish and Serve:
- Sprinkle with fresh parsley, smoked paprika, or a dash of hot sauce for an added kick.
- Serve directly from the flat plate for that backyard BBQ vibe.
Note
Temperature Check: Boerewors should reach a final internal temperature of 71°C to be fully cooked.
Versatility Tip: Feel free to swap mozzarella with cheddar or add your favourite BBQ rub to the potatoes for extra flavour.
Lid Open vs. Closed: Leaving the lid open gives softer eggs, while closing it steams them slightly for a firmer texture.
