Everything Hash Brown Cake with Pickled Red Onions and Green Onion Creme Fraiche image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup creme fraiche
2 green onions, dark green and pale green part, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large russet potatoes
1/2 cup clarified butter
1 clove garlic, smashed
3/4 teaspoon poppy seeds
3/4 teaspoon flaked sea salt
3/4 teaspoon sesame seeds
Freshly ground black pepper
Parsley leaves

Steps:

  • For the onions: Put the red onions in a medium bowl. Combine the lime juice, vinegar, sugar and salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook until the sugar and salt are dissolved. Remove from the heat and let sit to cool slightly, 5 minutes, then pour over the onions. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
  • For the hash browns: Mix together the creme fraiche and green onions in a small bowl, and season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Grate the potatoes using the large holes on a cheese grater. Heat half of the clarified butter in a 12-inch seasoned cast-iron pan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook until it is lightly golden brown on both sides and infuses the oil with the flavor of the garlic, then remove and discard.
  • Toss the potatoes with the poppy seeds, salt, sesame seeds and some pepper. Add the potatoes to the pan and stir to coat with butter. Using a spatula, gently press the potatoes into a flat round, slightly smaller than the pan. Cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until the edges are golden and crisp, about 10 minutes.
  • Working carefully with some large, flat spatulas, flip the potato cake. Pour the remaining butter around the edges of the potato cake and continue cooking until potatoes are crisp on the bottom, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board. Let cool for a few minutes. Spread the top with the prepared creme fraiche and scatter the pickled onions over the top. Garnish with parsley leaves and cut into wedges to serve.

CRISPY HASH BROWNS



Crispy Hash Browns image

Grated Parmesan and whipped crème fraîche enrich the flavor profile of these rich, golden hash browns. Packing the patties tightly and allowing the starch and cheese to bind the shredded potatoes achieves a crisp outer layer. Although the patties may seem somewhat loose before cooking, they'll fuse together in the hot oil, forming a formidable crust. Make sure not to disturb the patties: Let them fry until perfectly golden before flipping. Prepare these hash browns for a weekend brunch, or as a perfect side to accompany meat, poultry or salad.

Categories     brunch, dinner, vegetables, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 large russet potatoes
2/3 cup grated Parmesan
Heaping 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Heaping 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Kosher salt
5 tablespoons canola oil, plus more if needed
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 fresh thyme sprigs
1 tablespoon thinly sliced chives
1/3 cup crème fraîche
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill
1/2 teaspoon finely grated fresh lemon zest (from ½ lemon)
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Prepare the hash browns: Peel the potatoes, then use a box grater to shred them lengthwise into long strands, then place them immediately into a large bowl of cold water to prevent them from oxidizing. Pour out the water, add a second round of cold water until the shredded potatoes are immersed, and let them sit for about 5 minutes.
  • While the potatoes soak, prepare the crème fraîche: Add crème fraîche, dill and lemon zest to a medium bowl and whisk until aerated, about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt; refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Strain the potatoes, then use a cheesecloth or towel to squeeze out any excess water (or tightly grip them by the fistful, squeezing any liquid into the sink), transferring potatoes to a large bowl. Season shredded potatoes with the Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder and a generous amount of kosher salt. (If you notice a little excess water in your bowl, feel free to pour it out.) Mix until everything is incorporated and then shape the mixture into 8 patties, patting them firmly until compact.
  • Once you have your hash browns shaped and ready, divide 3 tablespoons canola oil between 2 large nonstick or cast-iron pans and heat over medium. Gently add 4 hash browns to each pan, using a spatula to sculpt the edges of each hash brown so they're rounded like hockey pucks. Cook, undisturbed, until golden-brown and crisp underneath, about 5 minutes, reducing the heat to medium-low if browning too quickly. Carefully flip the hash browns, adding about 1 tablespoon of oil to each pan (or more, if needed), and cook over medium until the second side is golden-brown, another 3 to 5 minutes, reducing the heat to medium-low if browning too quickly.
  • Once the hash browns are golden on both sides, working with 1 pan at a time, add 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and 2 thyme sprigs to the pan and cook over medium, tilting the pan slightly and using a spoon to baste the thyme-scented butter over the hash browns, about 1 minute.
  • Turn heat off and transfer butter-basted hash browns to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to absorb any excess oil. Repeat basting step with the remaining hash browns, butter and thyme sprigs.
  • Garnish with chives and serve with crème fraîche.

Tips:

  • Use a cast iron skillet for even cooking. A cast iron skillet will help to evenly distribute the heat, resulting in perfectly cooked hash browns.
  • Shred your potatoes by hand. Shredding your potatoes by hand will give you more control over the size and shape of the hash browns, resulting in a more consistent cook.
  • Season your potatoes well. Be generous with the salt and pepper when seasoning your potatoes. This will help to bring out the flavor of the potatoes and make them more delicious.
  • Cook your hash browns over medium heat. Cooking your hash browns over medium heat will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Flip your hash browns frequently. Flipping your hash browns frequently will help to ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. Overcrowding the skillet will prevent the hash browns from cooking evenly.
  • Serve your hash browns immediately. Hash browns are best served immediately after they are cooked, when they are hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Onion and garlic hash browns are a delicious and versatile breakfast dish. They can be served with eggs, bacon, sausage, or fruit. They can also be used as a side dish for lunch or dinner. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect onion and garlic hash browns at home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast, give these hash browns a try!
