Hash Brown Patties

 

Ingredients:

 1 large egg, lightly beaten

3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

1 (1-lb.) package pkg. frozen shredded hash browns ( Thawed) 

2 ounces pre-shredded mild Cheddar cheese (about 1/2 cup)

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1/4 cup canola oil

Directions:

Stir together egg, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and pepper in a large bowl. Add potatoes and cheese, and stir to combine. Sprinkle with flour, and toss to coat.

Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add 3 heaping spoonful's of potato mixture to skillet (about 1/3 cup per patty), and press gently with spatula to flatten. Cook until golden brown and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer patties to a plate lined with paper towels, and repeat in 3 more batches with remaining potato mixture and oil. Serve immediately.
