Time 40m

Yield 12 baskets, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (20 ounce) package Simply Potatoes® Shredded Hash Browns
1 large egg
2 -3 tablespoons flour
1 (12 ounce) package shredded cheddar cheese
8 ounces bacon, cooked and crumbled

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Generously coat 2 6-compartment non-stick muffin tins with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, egg and flour, adding just enough flour so mixture "sticks together". Divide evenly among the prepared muffin compartments. Using the back of a spoon, firmly press potato mixture into bottom and up sides of each compartment, making a "well" in each.
  • Place in oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until just starting to brown. Remove from oven and divide shredded cheese evenly among cups and top each with crumbled bacon. Return to oven and bake another 5-10 minutes or until "baskets" are golden brown and cheese and bacon is hot, melted and bubbly.
  • Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes. To serve: gently run the tip of a sharp knife blade around rim of each cup to loosen. Release each basket and place on serving platter.

SHREDDED POTATO CAKE WITH EGG AND CHEESE AND BACON



Shredded Potato Cake With Egg And Cheese And Bacon image

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     breakfast, one pot, main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 pound slab or other good bacon, cut into 1/4-inch chunks
3 or 4 potatoes, about 1 1/2 pounds
Salt and pepper to taste
At least 1 cup shredded cheese, like Gruyère, Emmenthal or Cheddar
6 to 8 eggs

Steps:

  • Put bacon in large nonstick skillet over medium heat; while fat is rendering, peel and grate potatoes (shredding disk of a food processor works great).
  • When bacon is about halfway crisp, spread it evenly in pan, and put potatoes over it; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Press the potatoes down with a plate almost as big as pan, and leave plate in place for about 5 minutes. Remove plate, and continue to cook, undisturbed, so potatoes form a cake, and adjusting heat so potatoes brown without burning. When potatoes are brown, slide cake out onto a plate, invert it onto another plate, and slide it back in, cooked side up.
  • Turn on broiler while potatoes brown on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle cheese on potatoes and carefully break eggs into the cheese (if you like softer eggs, put eggs on first, followed by cheese). Broil until cheese melts and eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Serve hot.
