Waffle House Hash Browns (Printable Version)

Golden, crispy hash browns inspired by Waffle House’s comforting breakfast flavors.

# Ingredients Required:

→ Egg Mixture

01 - 4 large eggs
02 - 60 ml whole milk
03 - Salt, to taste
04 - Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

→ Hash Browns

05 - 200 g frozen shredded potatoes, thawed and drained
06 - 30 g unsalted butter
07 - Salt, to taste
08 - Black pepper, to taste

→ Fillings

09 - 50 g diced onions
10 - 50 g diced green bell peppers
11 - 50 g cooked diced bacon or sausage
12 - 30 g shredded cheddar cheese

# Guide to Cooking:

01 - Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add shredded potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook until golden and crisp on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
02 - In the same skillet, sauté diced onions and green bell peppers until softened, approximately 3-4 minutes. Add cooked bacon or sausage and heat through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
03 - In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until combined and slightly frothy.
04 - Heat the skillet over medium heat, lightly grease if necessary. Pour in egg mixture and cook until edges begin to set but center remains slightly runny, about 2-3 minutes.
05 - Place the cooked hash browns on one half of the omelet. Top with sautéed vegetables, meat, and shredded cheddar cheese. Carefully fold the omelet over the fillings.
06 - Continue cooking for another 2 minutes or until cheese melts and eggs are fully cooked. Slide onto a plate and serve immediately.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Ensure hash browns are thoroughly cooked and crisp to provide texture contrast. Use medium heat to avoid browning the eggs too quickly.
