Hash connies, often referred to as hash browns, originate from the great state of Texas and are a flavorful and mouthwatering breakfast dish that is enjoyed by many. While there is no one-size-fits-all recipe, the traditional ingredients used in texas hash connies include potatoes, onions, salt, pepper and sometimes cheese. The potatoes are typically shredded or diced and then fried in butter or oil until they are golden brown and crispy. The onions are also diced and fried until they are softened and translucent. The cheese, if used, is added towards the end of the cooking process so that it melts and coats the potatoes and onions.

TEXAS HASH

The great thing about Texas Hash is that you can adjust the seasonings and other ingredients to suit your taste preferences. So it can gave be as hot or mild as your taste buds will tolerate. We serve this with thick slices of Texas Toast that we lightly toast during the last several minutes that the Texas Hash is baking.

EASY TEXAS HASH

This was one of my husband's go-to recipies when he was single. It is wonderful from the first serving when it is freshly made to the leftovers the next day. As a leftover suggestion, you can warm it up, put an egg, cheese and salsa over it for breakfast. I am so happy I married a man that can cook. I think I'll keep him because without him I'd probably starve!!
