I've made this for years and we too love it. I tend to let mine cook long enough to crisp up a bit. We like our hash a bit crispy. This is comfort food at its best. I often make with left over baked potatoes. -
OMG! This is a recipe my mom made for us and I make for my children, they adore it and their friends make a special trip to get a bowl of it. Yes, comfort food and cheap. I don't measure but I use about 3 cloves of chopped garlic to mine. When I make like my mom, I deep fry the diced potatoes after I fry my onions and garlic. Never served it with eggs but we love this simple dish. Thanks for posting now I can add it to my daughters cookbook for when she moves out on her own. I hate posting recipes, too much trouble.

have some fabulous recipes from well-traveled army people...
recently started adding just a splash of bourbon or brandy to real maple syrup - and it really gives french toast or pancakes a special, more sophisticated flavor...
a friend jokes that bourbon is my new "secret ingredient" that i'll be adding to everything - it's not true but i'm telling you - you should try it! it's really very good [for adults, anyway]
sugarpea's apple pancake recipe is a deadringer for Walker Brothers Pancake House in north shore Chicago - i've searchd for this for 34 years - and it's easy as well as To Die For!!!
the Dutch Baby pancake is a huge seller there too - with the same gooey comfort-food but elegant batter...
also if you search for lettuce wrap - the 2 recipes for PF Chang's come up... this is also SO GOOD, truly a memorable entree...
for cookbooks: With a Jug of Wine, More Recipes With a Jug of Wine were written by the San Francisco Chronicle food writer decades ago - and most everything in them is superb - and i learned a lot as a new cook, young wife, from reading through them in the late 1970s... i got a [very French] sense of food as a way of life
