hash brown/sausage/egg breakfast
I was in London, on business, a month or so ago, and we were having a breakfast business meeting at a really posh restaurant. I saw this really cool breakfast dish with awesome presentation go by me… But because it was a business meeting I didn’t have a chance to check it out; however, based on what I saw, this is what I came up with. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

How To Make hash brown/sausage/egg breakfast
-
Step 1Gather and prep your ingredients
-
Step 2Chop the onion, and place the yolk and whites into separate bowls.
-
Step 3Peel the potato, and grate on the large holes of a box grater.
-
Step 4Remove as much of the moisture from the potatoes as possible.
-
Step 5Chef’s Tip: I accomplish this by placing them into a tea towel, and twisting and squeezing the towel until I’ve removed most of the water.
-
Step 6Combine the egg white, the potato, and chopped onion in a bowl, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine.
-
Step 7Using a 3.5-inch salad ring place 2 ounces of the hash browns into the ring and press down.
-
Step 8Place the breakfast sausage on top of hash browns, and press down.
-
Step 9Place two more ounces of the hash browns on top of the sausage, and firmly press together.
-
Step 10Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat.
-
Step 11Carefully place the hash browns (ring and all) into the skillet.
-
Step 12Allow to cook for about 5 minutes, or until the bottom is crispy.
-
Step 13Carefully flip the hash brown ring and cook another 5 minutes.
-
Step 14Chef’s Tip: The trick here is to get the temperature of the pan hot enough to crisp the potatoes and cook the sausage without burning the potatoes. Medium heat on most stoves is about right.
-
Step 15Chef’s Note: Do you have to use a cooking ring… Nah, you can just press everything together with a spatula. But it looks SO good when you use a ring. As a matter of fact, the ones that I use are called: Crumpet rings.
-
Step 16When the hash browns and sausage are almost finished, take a small saucepan and boil about a cup of water.
-
Step 17After it boils, take off the heat, and add the egg yolk, being very careful not to break it.
-
Step 18Leave it in the hot water for about 3 minutes.
-
Step 19Chef’s Note: You want it cooked, but still nice and runny.
-
Step 20Plate the hash browns and sausage patty on a nice plain plate, and place the egg yolk on top... don't break the yolk.
-
Step 21Add some chopped fresh rosemary, and a bit of black pepper for garnish. Serve immediately.
-
Step 22To eat, break the yolk over the hash browns, and let it seep into the hash browns. Enjoy.
-
Step 23Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
