Ingredients:  
2 T. extra virgin olive oil
4 T. butter, divided
8 small red potatoes
1 medium red onion
1 large ham steak
salt and pepper
1 T. fresh thyme leave chopped, or 1 t. dried thyme
1/4 t. crushed red pepper flakes

Directions:
Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat with olive oil and 2 T. butter. While the pan is getting hot and the butter is melting, cut the potatoes in half and then thinly slice them. Add to the hot skillet and season with salt, pepper, thyme and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring every now and then, for about 10 min, or until potatoes have browned and are tender. Add the onion and ham and cook for 3-4 more minutes.

Preheat another skillet over medium high heat with 2 T. butter. Once the butter has melted and the bubbles have subsided, crack the eggs int the pan. Season with salt and pepper.

While the eggs are frying, finish off the hash by adding the roughly chopped spinach and basil to the potatoes. Toss to wilt and warm the spinach. Sprinkle the hash with tomatoes and cheese and remove from heat. Transfer the ham and spinach potatoes to plates. Top each portion with a fried egg.
