Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 Hash Browns)

  • 1 Potato
  • Potato Starch 1/2 tbsp
  • Swiss Chard (to taste)
  • 2 slices Bacon

Seasonings

  • Salt (to taste)
  • Olive Oil or Vegetable Oil (to taste)
  • Ketchup (to taste)
  • Olive Oil 1 tbsp
  • Coarse Black Pepper (to taste)
  • Grated Cheese (to taste)

Steps

  1. Cut 1 Potato into julienne strips, then into batons.
  2. Place the cut potatoes into a ziplock bag and seal it tightly.
  3. Pound the potatoes in the bag to mash them. [The Secret Here!] Mash them until there are fine crumbs and some chunkier pieces remaining. This creates a crispy yet chewy texture.
  4. Add a pinch of salt to the mashed potatoes and mix. [The Secret Here!] Mimic the saltiness of popular fast-food hash browns and season generously.
  5. Add 1/2 tbsp Potato Starch and mix thoroughly by kneading to ensure it binds well.
  6. Heat a generous amount of Olive Oil or Vegetable Oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
  7. Shape the mixed potatoes into your desired shape (oval here) and place them in the hot pan. Fry both sides until golden brown. [The Secret Here!] The starch will bind them firmly, so you don't need to worry about them falling apart. The edges turning golden is your cue to flip.
  8. Serve the cooked hash browns on a plate and add Ketchup (to taste) if desired.
  9. Wash Swiss Chard (to taste), drain the water, and arrange on a plate.
  10. Heat 1 tbsp Olive Oil in a frying pan and fry 2 slices of Bacon until crispy.
  11. Drizzle the hot bacon and its rendered fat over the Swiss Chard.
  12. Season the salad with a pinch of salt, coarse black pepper (to taste), and grated cheese (to taste).
