I added in minced garlic also when sauteeing the onion but that is optional. These go great with eggs! Ingredients:
1 onion, finely chopped |
vegetable oil (for frying) |
1 (16 ounce) package frozen shredded hash browns, thawed |
3 teaspoons seasoning salt (or to taste, or use white salt) |
black pepper |
8 slices kraft american cheese |
Directions:
1. Heat 2-3 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium heat; add in onion and saute for about 6-8 minutes or until tender (if adding in garlic add in the last 2-3 minutes of cooking).
2. In a bowl mix the thawed hash browns with onion, seasoned salt and pepper.
3. Heat more oil in the skillet; drop the hash brown mixture into about 3-inch rounds (if you find that the mixture has problems holding together then add in an slightly beaten egg).
4. Cook about 4-5 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and crispy (press down with a spatula to flatten).
5. Top each potato round with a slice of cheese; cook until melted.
6. Delicious!
