THE INGREDIENTS LIST:
– 2 Cups.Of frozen shredded hash browns, thawed.
– ½ Cup.Of cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage.
– ½ Cup.Of shredded cheddar cheese.
– 2 green onions, finely chopped.
– 2 Tbsp.Of all-purpose flour.
– 1 large egg, lightly beaten
– ½ Tsp.Of salt.
– ¼ Tsp.Of black pepper.
– Vegetable oil, for frying.
– Sour cream or ketchup, for serving (optional).
PREPARATION:
Step 1
To make the hash browns, thaw them out and then wring out any extra moisture by placing them in a clean dish towel. Hash browns should be transferred to a mixing basin.
Step 2
Combine the ingredients: Add the cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage, cheddar cheese, finely chopped green onions, all-purpose flour, a gently beaten egg, salt, and black pepper to the dish of hash browns. All the components should be well mixed.
Step 3.
Form the bites: Form each bite by taking approximately a spoonful of the hash brown mixture and shaping it into a little ball or patty. Put the formed bits on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper after repeating this procedure with the remaining ingredients.
Step 4
Chill the bites: After each bite is formed, wrap the baking sheet in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This aids in the bites maintaining their form while being fried.
Step 5
Heat the oil: Heat enough vegetable oil to completely cover the bits in a large pan or deep fryer. 350°F (175°C) or so should be the temperature of the oil. To guarantee precise temperature, use a kitchen thermometer.
Step 6
Fry the bits: To prevent crowding, carefully add batches of the cold bites to the heated oil. They should be fried for two to three minutes on each side or until crispy and golden. To drain extra oil, move the fried snacks to a plate lined with paper towels using a slotted spoon or tongs.
Step 7
Serve out and enjoy: After each bite has been cooked, place it on a serving plate. They may be served warm as prepared or dipped in sour cream or ketchup. It’s better to eat these crunchy hash-brown sausage bits right away while they’re still warm and crunchy.
Note:
If you’d like a healthy alternative, you may also bake these bites for approximately 15-20 minutes, turning them halfway through, at 400°F (200°C), until they are crispy and golden brown.
