Homemade Squash Hashbrowns - YUM!

Squash grated with our Bosch
A friend at work gifted us some rather large squash. We've made noodles with them in the past and had them kind of like spaghetti noodles. This time we thought we try them out as pseudo-hashbrowns.

Here's the recipe from AllRecipes.com:
  • PREP
    5 mins
  • COOK
    50 mins
  • READY IN
    1 hr 10 mins

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  2. Place spaghetti squash onto prepared baking sheet with cut sides down.
  3. Bake until squash is tender, about 45 minutes.
  4. Scrape strands of flesh from the squash with a fork and place in a large bowl. Mix flour and Parmesan cheese into squash strands.
  5. Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Spoon 1/4 cup of the spaghetti squash mixture into the skillet and pat and press to form squash into a patty about 1 inch thick. Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve patties topped with a dollop of sour cream. 

We cheated a little and threw our into the Bosch and grated it like cheese. Then threw that into the skillet. We opted out of the patty shaping and just cooked them loose.

YUM!

  2. Yes, they didn't taste JUST like hashbrowns but they are good alternative. Especially when they grow so well in the garden.
