Carrot Potato Hash Browns - Homemade

Submitted by A.J. Pejack

"This recipe resembles traditional hashbrowns, but the carrot serves nicely with dinner rather than breakfast. The flavors and textures of the two vegetables compliment eachother. It goes wonderfully as a side to meats."

This was okay; a bit bland. I think it makes a nice base recipe, and you can add spices/other ingredients (chili powder, red pepper flakes, onion, dill, whatever) to your taste. I used a nonstick pan and just added 1/6 c of oil to the mixture to ensure it wouldn't stick to the pan; it cooked well.

An interesting change to regular old hash browns.
