I was going to save this one, but it’s so sunny today I thought you might like a novel brunch idea: from Macheesmo (one of the most entertaining blog names ever)!
Ingredients
2 medium Yukon potatoes, grated
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper
Paprika
Eggs
Cooking spray
Steps
- Shred potato into a bowl of water, swirl.
- Drain and wring out potato. Get them as dry as possible.
- Mix potatoes thoroughly with oil.
- Heat up the waffle iron, then oil the surfaces.
- Pile on the potatoes and cook it up. Flip, then cook some more.
- When potatoes are crisped up to your liking, remove and serve with salt, pepper and paprika.
- Optional: Fry up an egg or two and serve with potato hash!
My hash browns didn’t turn out quite as pretty as Macheesmo’s, so if you want to do this, I recommend you follow the link to get his wording on steps (and beautiful pictures).

Quite a novel method for hash browns..

Not sure this would turn out that much better than just frying them on a pan, but then again, I found the most tedious part to be shredding the potato, which you’d end up doing either way.
Lesson learned: Potato was a little sticky on the waffle iron, so next time I’d use a spray to get oil on rather than a pastry brush.
Stay tuned for notes on some improvements I’ve made on the chard egg cupcakes from before!
