Hash Brown Nachos Food

HASH BROWN BREAKFAST BUNDT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Generously grease a 12-cup Bundt pan with butter.
• Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl until well combined. Add 1 tablespoon butter to a large nonstick skillet and heat over medium-low heat. Add the eggs and cook, stirring often, until they are just starting to come together but are still very runny, about 5 minutes.
• Melt the remaining 7 tablespoons butter in a large microwave-safe bowl in the microwave. Add the hash browns and toss to combine. Reserve 1 cup of the hash browns. Press the remaining hash browns into and up the sides and center of the prepared Bundt pan so the inside is completely covered. Lay 10 slices of cheese on top of the hash browns and 3 more slices around the center of the pan to completely cover. Lay 8 slices of ham on top of the cheese. Spoon half of the eggs on top of the ham, then top with 8 sausage patties. Repeat with the remaining cheese, ham, eggs and sausage. Spread the reserved cup of hash browns on top.
• Bake until the top and sides of the hash browns are dark golden brown and very crispy, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving platter. Let stand for 10 minutes more, then slice and serve warm.

HASH BROWN NACHOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with nonstick spray; set aside.
• Cook the bacon in a large nonstick pan over medium heat until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat into a small bowl and reserve. Leave the remaining bacon fat in the pan.
• Increase the heat under the pan to medium high, add the olive oil and hash browns and cook, stirring occasionally to break apart the potato strands and brown them evenly, until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Spread half of the chips on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle half of the Cheddar, Monterey Jack, hash browns and bacon over the chips. Repeat with the remaining chips, cheese, hash browns and bacon. Bake until the cheese is melted, about 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in the same nonstick pan over medium heat, add the reserved bacon grease. Cook the eggs sunny-side up until set, about 4 minutes. Top the nachos with the fried eggs, avocado, hot sauce and chives.

NACHO HASH BROWN CASSEROLE

Steps:

• In a greased 3-qt. slow cooker, combine the first five ingredients. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours or until potatoes are tender. Stir in sour cream. Cover and cook 15-30 minutes longer or until heated through.

HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes in a saucepan of boiling water for 10 mins then drain and set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Coarsely grate the potatoes into a bowl discarding any skin that comes off in your hand as you grate. Season well with salt and pepper and pour over half the butter. Mix well then divide the mix into 8 and shape into patties or squares. The hash browns can be prepared a day ahead and chilled until ready to cook or frozen for up to a month.
• To cook, heat the oil and the remaining butter in a frying pan until sizzling and gently fry the hash browns, in batches if needed, for 4-5 mins on each side until crisp and golden. Serve straight away or leave in a low oven to keep warm.

PERFECT HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Grate potatoes on the largest hole on a box grater into a medium bowl. Cover with cold water and drain; repeat once or twice, until water runs nearly clear. Taking small handfuls at a time, squeeze all the water from the potatoes and place in a dry medium bowl. Grate onion on the largest hole on a box grater and toss with potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Taking small handfuls at a time, squeeze all water from the potato-onion mixture. Heat 2 tablespoons reserved bacon fat or vegetable oil in skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon butter and swirl together.
• Add potatoes and onions and spread into a thin, even layer. Cook, without moving, until the potatoes are nearly cooked through and browned on one side, about 5 to 8 minutes. Using a spatula, flip sections of the potatoes to crisp on the other side. Add 1 tablespoon reserved bacon fat or vegetable oil and remaining 1 tablespoon butter and cook, without moving, until potatoes are browned on the other side, about another 5 minutes. Flip once or twice more (you don't have to be so careful here; just kind of stir them around) and continue to cook until most of the bits of potato are golden brown and crisped, about another 4 minutes.
• Transfer potatoes to a plate. Serve with hot sauce (or ketchup, if you wish).
