  1. Great but also easy recipe. Everyone loved these hash browns. They came out crispy and brown. I added a small amount of fresh rosemary and parsley. The rosemary makes them savory and the parsley adds freshness. Either way, great recipe. Feel free to add flavors you like. Thank you
     
  2. very easy and economical! I used my cast iron skillet and used about 1/4 inch of olive oil (gives more flavor than reg. vegetable oil.) Easy to flavor with garlic salt or cayenne pepper for extra kick. Also used this for Bacon,Cheese and Potato Chowder recipe # 251214 and it turned out wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
     
  3. This recipe really helped me with my hash brown craving. I added both the chopped parsley and anchovies. Kept the recipe almost as is except didn't add salt and used Egg Like which is an egg replacer. Used olive oil cooking spray instead of olive oil. My 3 year old really enjoyed eating them as well. Thank you Missy Wombat

  5. Great hash browns. I have never been able to get my hash browns brown up like I like them. No problem with these. They browned up nicely. I did not use the parsely or anchovy Next time I will add more onion and maybe some green pepper.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm an ex-pat NZer living in the tropical Top End of Australia. Which makes it a perfect place to make homemade bread and summer recipes all year around. I experiment on my 3 kids who have grown up trying new Zaar recipes every other day and they are thriving. I'm the lacto-ovo vegetarian in the family and somehow I got roped in to become a Forum Host here at Zaar. So check out the Vegetarian and Vegan Forum http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewforum.zsp?f=43 and feel free to join in whether you are a fully fledged vegan or someone who needs to cater for a vegetarian and has no idea where to start. Every year I try to do something a bit different to push the envelope a little bit. In 2005 I learned how to sail a dinghy; 2006's grand passion is mosaics. Check out my blog! Between raising three children, working almost fulltime and trying to pursue my hobbies...let's say that my time management skills have greatly improved over the years! I am also very interested in living a sustainable lifestyle. Essentially I'm finding that I'm getting back to the country lifestyle I enjoyed in my childhood even though these days I live in themiddle of suburbia. To this end I have started gardening although I am a total gardening virgin when it comes to gardening in a tropical climate. I also have a cookbook with a number of recipes you can make from scratch. Living clean and green is good for you AND cheaper!
