Mozzarella/Ricotta How-to

Homemade Bacon

I found this recipe for Oven Roasted Hash Brown Cakes in the December
2008 issue of Bon Appetit. There is not much to say about them except that
they are excellent, and surprisingly not that unhealthy.

I have made these a couple times now and they are always satisfyingly
savory and crispy. I use a mandolin to thinly slice the onions and I use the
grater plate from my food processor to grate the potatoes (which by the way
Sundried Tomato Pesto is a totally awesome time saver).

Here is the recipe which I have adapted slightly.

# Cate O'Malley on 03/31/09 at 19:56

Oh man that looks delicious... thinking of making a roast chicken

tomorrow, and this would be perfect with it.

Goodness gracious, I have never tried OVEN hash browns before, but
your innovative adaptation of Bon Appetit's recipe has me inspired!
Beautiful take on the Swiss "rosti" or American hash browns!

# Esi on 03/31/09 at 22:40

I love the idea of cooking these in the oven to lighten them up.

# Teanna on 04/01/09 at 07:17

WOW! They look awesome!! I always have such a hard time with hash
browns.. I need to try them this way!

# gaga on 04/06/09 at 21:16

Yum, those look really good. I love hash browns!

# IMSaraaa on 04/12/09 at 12:19

Love hash brown! I used olive oil instead of butter, equally delicious!

# Teeni on 01/20/10 at 11:52

These were fabulous! I love that they are simple, made with REAL food
ingredients, and are baked instead of fried. I made a batch of them but
made them into much smaller patties to be used as appetizers. The
bonus was that it took less time to cook. Also, serving them with small
bowls of vegan sour cream, chopped green onion, and ketchup made
them appealing to both the kids and adults! Thanks for sharing. I'm
going to go make another batch right now and freeze them to have
ready at a moment's notice.

Nice to read this. I'm really appreciated.

# Casino Ryneer Sr. on 06/11/10 at 19:47

I just stumbled upon your blog. I really enjoy reading your posts.

# health vitamins on 06/13/10 at 12:02

Mmmmm, those look really good, definately looks like it came out of a
restaurant.

And the potatos went through the food processor like that, dude, I am
so getting one now, I would love to see my potatoes like that.

# Casino Yanagida Sr. on 06/15/10 at 20:52

I'm actually experienced with this, and I agree with you.
