Crispy Baked Hash Browns
•Soy-free •Nut-freepotatoes and cheese bake up into crispy, savory hash browns so good,
and so easy, that you’ll never want to fry them again.Preheat the oven to 350 ̊F (175 ̊C, or gas mark 4). Line 2 baking sheets
with parchment paper and spray the paper generously with nonstick spray.
Place a colander in your sink and place the shredded potatoes into the
colander. Drain any excess liquid from the potatoes by pushing down on
the potatoes and letting the liquid drain down the sink. Place the potatoes
in a large bowl.
Add the minced garlic, shredded cheese, chopped parsley, cornstarch,
salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika and stir to combine.
Make 6 mounds of the potato mixture, spaced evenly, on each baking
sheet to make a total of 12 hash browns. Press down on the potatoes to
flatten each mound into a flat, round shape. Spray lightly with nonstick
spray and place in the oven to bake. Cook for about 20 minutes, then flip
with a spatula and cook another 10 to 15 minutes, or until evenly browned
and crispy.Yield: 6 servings
Chef’s Tip
Try a mixture of half russet and half sweet potato for a sweet variation.Maple-Glazed Bacon
with Cracked Black Pepper
•Soy-free •Dairy-free •Nut-freei slather melt-in-your-mouth thick-cut bacon with sweet maple syrup and crust it with
coarsely ground black pepper for an over-the-top twist on this breakfast staple.2 pounds (908 g) thick-cut bacon
6 tablespoons (90 ml) maple syrup
1 tablespoon (6 g) cracked black
pepper, or more to tastePreheat the oven to 350 ̊F (180 ̊C, or gas mark 4). Line a rimmed baking
sheet with parchment paper. Place the bacon in a single layer on the
parchment and bake for about 15 minutes.
Flip the bacon and rearrange for even cooking (pieces on the outside
tend to brown faster than the bacon pieces in the center of the baking
sheet). Use a pastry brush to brush the bacon with the maple syrup, then
sprinkle with the cracked pepper. Bake an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or
until brown and crispy. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then serve.Yield: 6 servings
Chef’s Tip
If any pieces of bacon begin to get too brown before the others are done,
remove them to a plate while the others finish cooking.(Ray)
