Hash Browns
Serves 4
1 onion, peeled and quartered
600g potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
50g butter
50g butter, extra and a little oil
Chop onion on speed 5 for a few seconds at a time, scraping down in between. Add potatoes and chop on speed 5 for a few seconds at a time, scraping down in between until chopped coarsely.
Remove from bowl and place into a sieve. Press as much liquid as possible from the mixture.
Place back into bowl and add the 50g butter. Cook for 5 minutes, 100, speed 1, reverse.
Remove and place into a bowl to cool.
When ready to cook, heat the remaining butter and some oil in a frying pan. Fry each side until quite browned and crispy. I turned mine twice on each side.

Oooh lr loves hash bownes, thank you :)
-
So do I Hally. MJ, do they stay in nice shapes - do you have a photo for us?
-
Yummy, will make for kids tonight. :)
-
I've been waiting for this recipe since you posted on the cooking thread MJ, can't wait to make them :D
-
Picture of them frying away in the pan in the first post. They stay in shape well. I rolled them in wet hands, then flattened in my palm.
They need long cooking to get crisp, so don't have the pan too hot.
-
Excellent, thanks for the cooking tip too MJ. Love anything with potato in it.
-
Great photo MJ ;D And thanks for the tips :)
-
Did the kids like them Obbie?
-
Yum, & DH said to tell you these are great MJ! :)
He loves to take hash browns to work with him on cold days, he heats them at work (I cooked them first) and has them with soup. :)
Haven't tried them on the kids yet, but I think they will like them!! :D
-
So glad they passed the test with DH astarra! Mine loved them too. So much healthier (and cheaper) than the ones you buy.
-
These will be something different to have with our fish and salad one night.
-
We had these tonight with our crab and salad. I forgot to tell DH how to mould them. ( he did them outside using the hot plate)
-
I'm really looking forward to making these tonight :D :D
I just have a little question....
I was wondering if it would be possible to use half sweet potato? It tends to cook more quickly than regular potato and usually ends up softer. I'm not sure if this might make them too soft and sloppy? Does anyone have any thoughts?
-
Amy why not just grate a small amount of sweet potato and add it to one of the hash browns just before you shape and cook it. That way it won't get the first cooking. If it works then you will know for the rest.
-
I made these yesterday they tended to fall apart a bit as it turned them four times, the last half I added an egg and a little rice flour to,the mixture it is so much better held the shape beautifully. Nice taste ate four in a row. Piggy piggy.

Aussie Brenda, I only turn them once for that reason! Good idea adding the egg and rice flour.
