Hash Browns!


Dinner tonight is going to be Bacon-Cheddar Quiche. So for a side, how about some easy hash browns? I've got a couple of potatoes that have just been sitting around - if I don't hurry up & use them, I'm going to have to toss them! Dinner tonight's fairly simple. I love that these are a couple of recipes where I usually have all the ingredients on hand. And those times when I need a bit of onion but don't have any in the house, I use either some of the dried minced onion or a packet of the onion soup mix. Still tastes the same! :)

Hash Browns

2 medium potatoes, shredded and rinsed (water should run clear)
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 small pepper, finely chopped (optional)
1/3 c flour
1 egg
salt & pepper to taste
oil for frying

Place potatoes, onion, flour, egg, and salt & pepper in a bowl & mix. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once oil starts sizzling, place about 1/2 inch layer of hash browns in oil. Cook until browned on the bottom, then flip & brown the other side. Remove from pan & drain on paper towels. Enjoy!
