HASH BROWN TAG RECIPES

Steps:

• Spray inside of the slow cooker with cooking spray. Add potatoes (I like to use the shredded hash browns vs. the cubed), soup, milk and onion rings (reserving 1/4 cup of the onion rings). Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Stir a little to combine. Cover and cook on LOW for 7-9 hours or HIGH about 3 hours. Sprinkle reserved onion rings over the top just before serving.

Steps:

• 1. Make the umami stir fry powder (if desired): Toss all of the ingredients into a mini food processor or spice grinder. Blend to make a fine powder, scraping down the sides occasionally to make sure the dehydrated green onions are totally powderized. (This seasoning will keep in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.) 2. Make the hash brown fish: Grate the potatoes with a food processor or by using the large holes of a box grater. 3. Bundle the shredded potatoes in a clean kitchen towel. Then, wring out the potatoes and discard the liquid. 4. In a large bowl, toss together the shredded potatoes, scallions and 1 teaspoon of umami stir fry powder or kosher salt. 5. Pat the fish dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the other teaspoon of umami stir fry powder or kosher salt on the fish fillets. 6. Heat a large cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat, and then add 2 tablespoons of oil or ghee to the hot pan. 7. Add two ?-cup mounds of potatoes to the pan and flatten them into rectangles, approximating the size of your fish fillets. 8. Smush a fish fillet onto each potato layer and cover each one with a thin layer of shredded potatoes. 9. Fry for 5 to 8 minutes or until the bottom layer of potatoes is crisp and golden brown. 10. Carefully flip the fillet packets over with a fish spatula and cook for another 5 to 8 minutes on the other side. 11. Once the other potato layer is nicely browned and the center of the fish registers 135?F on an instant-read thermometer, transfer to a plate. 12. Repeat steps 6 to 11 with the remaining fish and potatoes and serve with lemon wedges.
