Hash brownies with bacon and eggs

on



Home made hash brown potatoes. Better than in the grocery freezer aisle or the burger joint drive thru. They are simply finely cut potatoes fried with a few spices. Good by themselves, or as a side dish. And potatoes will keep for a few weeks without a fridge, so good as boat or RV food. 

Start by washing the potatoes. I like them with the peels on, but I cut out the eyes. I am going to use 2 medium potatoes, enough as a side dish for 2 people

 



Shred using the large holes of a kitchen grater. That is about a pound of shredded potato

 

Season with garlic powder and paprika.

They fry better if not too wet, so squeeze out as much of their moisture as you can with paper towels

Cut up some bacon. Everything is better with bacon.

Cut up some green onion for garnish

Start browning the bacon in the pan. Don't let it get completely crispy since it will cook another 4 or 5 minutes with the potato. If you are doing this without a fridge, use ready cooked bacon bits.

Add oil to the pan to fully cover it

Spread out the bacon evenly over the entire pan.

Spoon in the potatoes and spread out thinly


Fry on one side. Flip over. I cut it into quarters to make it easier. And fry on the other side

Check for doneness and set aside

I am going to add a couple of fried eggs to my breakfast, so we are no longer in a fridge less world

Add a bit of salt and pepper.

Put the potatoes back to warm them up

Server with ketchup

 

What do you mean that hash brownies are something else completely? Who knew?
