Ingredients

• 4 cups Frozen shredded hash browns
• 8 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 8 slices Canadian bacon
• 1 tablespoon White vinegar
• 1 packet Hollandaise sauce mix
• 1 cup Milk (for Hollandaise sauce)
• 1 stick Butter (for Hollandaise sauce)
• 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the frozen shredded hash browns, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly season the hash browns.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Scoop about 1/2 cup of the hash brown mixture into the skillet and flatten it into a round patty with a spatula. Repeat to make 4 patties, cooking them in batches if necessary.

Step 4

Cook each patty for 4–5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil between batches if needed. Set the cooked hash brown patties on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 5

In a small saucepan, prepare the Hollandaise sauce according to the packet instructions, using 1 cup of milk and 1 stick of butter. Keep warm on low heat.

Step 6

In a separate skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the slices of Canadian bacon and cook for 1–2 minutes per side, until lightly browned and heated through. Set aside.

Step 7

Fill a medium saucepan with water and bring it to a gentle simmer. Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to the water.

Step 8

Crack an egg into a small bowl or ramekin. Create a gentle whirlpool in the simmering water with a spoon and carefully slide the egg into the water. Repeat for all 8 eggs, cooking them in batches if necessary.

Step 9

Poach the eggs for 3–4 minutes for a soft yolk or longer if desired. Use a slotted spoon to remove the eggs and set them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Step 10

To assemble, place a hash brown patty on a serving plate. Top it with a slice of Canadian bacon, a poached egg, and a generous drizzle of Hollandaise sauce.

Step 11

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
