Answer 3

!!!hash brown!!!


2 cups frozen hash browns
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 lb cooked ground beef
1 cup corn
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1 cup salsa



MIX hash browns with half the cheddar cheese in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
LAYER with the remaining cooked beef, corn, green onions and salsa; Top with remaining cheese.

Answer 4

Use a cheese grater - wash the potatoes and there is no need to peel - then after you have grated the desired amount rinse thoroughly in cold running water to reduce starch and improve color and flavor of the finished product. Chunked or cubed potatoes would be cottage potatoes.

Answer 5

Usually either a small dice, or shredded.


"Hashed Brown Potatoes" - 6 servings

1/4 cup bacon drippings or salad oil
8 medium potatoes; cooked, peeled and diced
1 onion; finely chopped
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper

1) In 10" skillet over medium-high heat, heat drippings. Add potatoes to skillet; press down firmly with spatula. Sprinkle with onion, salt and pepper; reduce heat to medium. Cook until golden on bottom, pressing down potato mixture occasionally.
2) With spatula, turn potatoes about 1/4 at a time; press down. Cook until golden, turning as necessary.

Answer 6

The best way to do so is to use a gratter. First you should wash the potatoes and then peel them. Then simply grate them. You may want to chop up some onions as well and carmalize them when making your hash browns.

Answer 7

I use a food processor to grate the potatoes. Peel them first obviously. You must get the moisture out if you want them to be crispy. You can drain them in a colander and then pat dry with paper towels. Just make sure they're as dry as possible!!

Answer 8

Hash browns are generally made from leftover cooked potatoes...either boiled or baked...then run them through a grater and away you go!.....using raw potatoes can lead to a gooey gluey mess if not careful

Answer 9

I like to peel them first
then cut them into fours
cut up some onions and boil them for about 10 minutes take them out and bake them until they are crispy on the top
season with salt and pepper

Answer 10

Use a Cheese Grater :O)

Happy Cooking!

Answer 11

If you don't have a Food Processor use a Box Grater, rinse them good and squeeze them dry
