Hash Browns

Given the contents of this week’s CSA share, what else was I supposed to make for brunch?

Scrubbed and de-eyed potatoes were shredded in the food processor, then rinsed in cold water and drained thoroughly. Then a sliced onion half was sautéed in olive oil until golden brown. After removing the onions to a bowl, and adding more olive oil and some bacon grease to the pan, I tossed in the potatoes and sautéed them over medium heat. Diced green pepper, salt, and freshly ground pepper were added, and eventually the caramelized onions were returned to the pan. I allowed the hash to brown for a while before flipping it over (in sections) to brown the other side.

The result: crispy, golden, and relatively healthy hash browns – another breafast encore.
