Easy Cauliflower Hash Browns
Equipment
- Large skillet
- Clean cloth or cheesecloth
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower riced or shredded
- 0.5 large onion shredded
- 2 tablespoons golden flaxseed meal
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic salt (or sea salt)
- 1 large egg
- 1-2 large egg whites (see instructions)
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
Instructions
- Gently steam your riced cauliflower in the microwave for 2-3 minutes until it's soft, then let it cool down.
- While the cauliflower cools, in a big bowl, whisk together the shredded onion, golden flaxseed meal, garlic salt, one whole egg, and one egg white.
- Once the cauliflower is cool, wrap it in a clean cloth or cheesecloth. Squeeze out as much liquid as you possibly can – this is key for crispy hash browns!
- Add the drained cauliflower to the bowl with the other ingredients and mix well. If the mixture feels a bit loose when you try to form a patty, just add an extra egg white to help it bind.
- Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Spoon the cauliflower mixture onto the hot pan, pressing down gently with a spatula to shape them into patties. Cook for 2-4 minutes until golden brown on the bottom, then flip and cook for another 2-4 minutes until crispy and browned. Continue with the rest of the mixture.
