Carrot Hashbrowns

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    3 potatoes, peeled and grated
    3 carrots, peeled and grated
    1 onion, peeled and grated
    1 tablespoon oil
    salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Combine potatoes, carrots and onion in medium bowl and mix well.  Salt and pepper to taste.  Heat oil in skillet.  Dump in potato mixture and form into a large pancake.  Cook until browned on one side, and then flip over and repeat.  Serve cut into wedges, or just break it up.  Can be served plain, or with applesauce, or sour cream.  Yummy, and pretty too!

Serves: 1-2

Preparation time: 10 minutes

Hi! I love hashbrowns and your recipe sounds delicious. I'm just wondering what binds the ingredients together while frying? Theres no egg or egg substitute in your recipe so I'm thinking that the pancakes will fall apart in the frying pan. Any suggestions to avoid this problem?

the starch and moisture in the potatoe will hold it together

I've made this recipe tons of times, and never had any trouble with the pancake holding together.  And to flip it, I usually put a large plate on top of the skillet, invert, and then slide it back into the pan.

This recipe is taken almost verbatim from the book Fit For Life.  I think you should at least give the authors, Harvey and Marilyn Diamond the credit.  Otherwise, it is a delicious recipe.

You beat me to it Jay.  I was going to say the same thing.  I have been enjoying this Fit For Life recipe for years.

My Mum made these for me when I was a kid all the time, I didn't think a recipe was required, let alone crediting someone else for something not exactly unique!  Delish though

These are the BEST hashbrowns I've ever had!!!!  They are so freakin good!! Thanks for this easy recipe that tastes great and fills you up!  VEGGIES ROCK!!!!!!

It didn't hold for me...maybe its just my skill hahaha.  Plain it was great.  I'm trying it with applesauce right now and its also very good.  Maybe I'm weird, but I think that ketchup makes it taste awesome.  Nice dish.

I thought these were great.  We also added some fresh chives and parsley to the mixture.  It held together as long as we didn't flip it too often or too early (before it got browned).

Hi!  I tried this tonight and thought they were great!  Instead of making one big one, I didn't have a big enough pan, I made little cakes by forming them in my hand and then cooking in the pan.  I also served them with fat free, plain yogurt which I tend to use instead of sour cream.

super good especially with some garlic powder too.  I'm impressed and surprised---mine stayed together.

Okay a few helpful tips:

1) If you dont want to make huge portions cut the recipe. I made this with 1 carrot and 1 semi large potato, that still gave me 12-15 small/ medimumish hash browns. Great for 2 - 5 people, also if you are making MINI ones like me then I suggest forget the oil and break out your cooking spray.

and

2) If you are impatient then this is not the recipe for you. Because there is no added flour/ binding agent it will take a little bit longer then 10 min on low heat. Yes low, medium is unpredictable and high will definitely burn them before they are even cooked. You can tell when they are ready when the potato's go from white to a translucent yellowish colour. Flip over and you might have to wait up to 5 min for the other side.

Other then that ENJOY!

I made this with garlic powder (as suggested) and reduced the onion to 1/8th and served with baked beans! My husband was so happy he ate it in 2 min... when it took like 30 min to make it this morning.  Smirk

So tasty!!  But I had to fight to get it to stay together.  I used olive oil, and seasoned with celery salt.  I dipped it in ketchup.  Yum yum yum.

i just made these, i added flaxseed and flour because i was afraid of them breaking up, they sucked up a lot of oil, but other than that they were great!

I made this for my lunch but it completely fell apart. How much oil did you put in the pan? I shallow fried it and it didn't work, but it was really nice!

mine also didn't stick together at all. Then again, it could be because I parboiled my carrots/potatoes first so it'd take less frying time to cook them through. regardless, it was tasty

I was a little frustrated with the lack of bonding that the ingredients did.  It was a mess.  It tasted alright though.

I tried this yesterday, and like other reviewers said, it didn't really stick together at all. It was kinda plain too, even though I added a ton of salt and pepper. Sorry, I just didn't like it too much.  Undecided

I've been making something similar for many years, tasty and a good way to use up leftover veggies, just chop and toss them in the mix.

Thanks so much for your recipe!  For a recipe for potato pancakes/ ladkes (sp?) we used:

1-1/2 pounds russet potatoes
1 small yellow onion
1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Safflower oil, for frying

They held together terrifically and when I was talking to my son (chef, cook), he suggested using corn starch to make them crispier.  We haven't tried it that way yet but when I make this recipe I think that's how I'll make it.

Peace, love and understanding.
