Ingredients:
- 4 eggs (separated into yolks and whites)
- Salt & pepper (to taste)
- 2 tbsp plain wheat flour
- 100g shredded chicken salami
- 2 medium-sized potatoes, grated
- 2 tbsp chopped green onions
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp ginger powder
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
Steps to Make Chinese Hash Browns Recipe:
- Grating Potatoes: Begin by grating the potatoes and squeezing out any excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel. This step is crucial to ensuring the hash browns turn out crispy and golden rather than soggy.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes with the shredded chicken salami, plain wheat flour, chopped green onions, egg whites, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic powder, ginger powder, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until a sticky, cohesive mixture forms.
- Pan Heat: Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a non-stick pan on medium flame. For crispier hash browns, heat the oil before frying.
- Shape Hashbrowns: Form a tiny nest with a spatula by scooping potato mixture into the pan. Making as many as the pan will accommodate ensures consistent cooking.
- Stir in Egg Yolks: Place one egg yolk in the centre of each nest after shaping it. This will give the meal a gorgeous look and creamy richness.
- Perfectly Cook: Cook hash browns for 3–4 minutes each side until golden brown and crispy. Gently turn them to preserve the egg yolk.
- Hot Serve: Serve hot with soy sauce or chilli oil after cooking the Chinese hash browns.
