Healthy Hash Browns Recipes

HEALTHY HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Shred the potatoes using the large holes of a box style cheese grater.
• Squeeze out as much water as possible from the grated potatoes. This can be one using a potato ricer, or by placing the potatoes in a cheese cloth, squeezing out as much liquid as possible, then readjusting a few times and continue to squeeze. This will have to be done in small batches.
• Heat olive oil over a 10-inch medium skillet for a couple minutes.
• Once hot, add the grated potatoes. Use spatula to spread the potatoes evenly over the entire bottom of the skillet. The potatoes should be about ¼ to ½ inch thick.
• Sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper over the potatoes.
• Cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 3-4 minutes. Use a spatula to lift a corner to see if they are golden brown.
• Use two spatulas to flip the potatoes all at once (or divide into a couple sections).
• Cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.
• Top with extra salt and pepper to taste. If you choose to any optional add in's, cook them first, and then add to the cooked hash browns.

HEALTHY HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Peel and grate your potatoes. Rinse thoroughly and then squeeze out all the excess moisture. I use my colander for this job
• In a mixing bowl, add grated potato, flour, egg, salt and pepper. Mix well until well combined
• Heat a pan to medium heat. Add olive oil
• Spoon in ¼ cup of potato mix into pan. It will look like a little potato pancake. Repeat until mixture is finished. You should get 6 hash browns out of your mixture
• Cook for around 5 minutes until hash brown is golden underneath. Turn over and cook the other side
• Remove from pan and lay on a paper towel to soak up any excess oil. Serve immediately

HEALTHY OVEN HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Blend cashews and water or coconut milk with seasonings for at least 1 minute until smooth.
• Pour over potatoes and add the diced onion. Mix well with hands to coat all the potatoes. May freeze some of the uncooked mix for future use.
• Place on a nonstick or lightly oiled cookie sheet and place on bottom rack of unheated oven. Turn on the oven to 400 degrees F and bake for 20-30 minutes until golden brown on the edges and lightly browned in places on the bottom. NOTE: Don't overbake, or they will become dry.
• Pile in a serving dish to retain some of the moisture and serve. The serving dish may be covered and placed in a warm oven. Don't leave them warming for more than 20 minutes or they will begin to discolor.
