I like an easy breakfast that doesn't take much time to prepare so we can enjoy the morning. We love hash browns, and have come to rely on the dried hash browns we purchase at Costco - super easy to prepare and results in perfect hash browns every time (once you get the hang of cooking them)
Pour out some of the dried potatoes into a bowl, cover with water (1/2 inch above the level of the potatoes), and add a pinch of salt - then into the microwave for 1 minute to rehydrate
In the meantime, if you want to add some meat, now is the time to start preparing it - this morning I used some of the pork butt we prepared using the SRG last weekend - these chunks were chopped relatively fine.
After the potatoes have rehydrated (usually takes about 15 minutes), drain off as much of the water as you can - essential for crisp hash browns. Place them on a paper towel if necessary.
The chopped pork was seasoned with plenty of salt and black pepper. The chunks were also coated with a blend of smoked paprika, cumin, and thyme, then lightly fried to warm them through
Here's the outcome - very crisp potatoes and savory chunks of pork.
Top with an egg and you have a simple breakfast that will leave you satisfied all day.
