Potato hashbrowns are a breakfast food staple when it comes to your typical weekend fry up, this recipe is so easy you will never buy hashbrowns again.
I’ve always been a master at cooking just the right amount of food for two people, I hate waste and I’m not a fan of leftovers, for some reason it just grosses me out, but since adding little Arren to our family I’m yet to master the art of cooking for 2 and a half people, so instead I’m cooking for a family of four and nothing proves that more than the amount of mashed potatoes I leftover when making my lentil loaf with mashed potatoes recipe, but leftovers has never looked this good to me.
These easy potato hashbrowns are the picky toddlers dream, I feel like all picky eaters love potato so you already have a winner. This is so easy and flavourful and it freezes well. The video recipe is up here.
