HASHED BROWN POTATO CASSEROLE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Generously grease a 12-cup Bundt pan with butter.
• Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl until well combined. Add 1 tablespoon butter to a large nonstick skillet and heat over medium-low heat. Add the eggs and cook, stirring often, until they are just starting to come together but are still very runny, about 5 minutes. 
• Melt the remaining 7 tablespoons butter in a large microwave-safe bowl in the microwave. Add the hash browns and toss to combine. Reserve 1 cup of the hash browns. Press the remaining hash browns into and up the sides and center of the prepared Bundt pan so the inside is completely covered. Lay 10 slices of cheese on top of the hash browns and 3 more slices around the center of the pan to completely cover. Lay 8 slices of ham on top of the cheese. Spoon half of the eggs on top of the ham, then top with 8 sausage patties. Repeat with the remaining cheese, ham, eggs and sausage. Spread the reserved cup of hash browns on top. 
• Bake until the top and sides of the hash browns are dark golden brown and very crispy, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving platter. Let stand for 10 minutes more, then slice and serve warm. 

Steps:

• Place the whole potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until half-cooked and almost tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and let sit until cool enough to handle. Slip the skins from the potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch dice.
• Heat the oil and melt the butter in a skillet over high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the garlic, and cook, stirring, for 20 seconds. Add the potatoes, Essence, thyme, salt, and pepper, and cook without stirring, but shaking the pan occasionally to keep from burning, until the potatoes begin to color and crisp on the underside, about 4 minutes. Turn the potatoes with a spatula being careful not to mash, and continue cooking until uniformly golden.
• Remove from the pan and serve hot.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
