Ingredients
  

  • 4 Cups Dehydrated shredded Paleo veggie mix
  • 3-5 Cups Boiling water
  • 3 Fresh eggs
  • 1/4 Cup Almond flour or 2 Tbsp. coconut flour
  • 1 Tbsp. Curry or Turmeric
  • 1 tsp Granulated garlic or 1 Tbsp. minced fresh garlic
  • 2 tsp Sea salt and black pepper
  • 1/4 Cup Coconut oil
  • 1/4 Cup Other fat - grass fed butter duck fat, bacon fat, ghee, etc.

Instructions
 

  • Place the dehydrated shredded veggies in a heat-resistant bowl.  Cover in the boiling water.  You may not need all the water, or you might need all of it.
  • Allow veggies to sit for at least ten minutes.  Fluff with a fork and check for saturation.  If you still have pockets of dry veggies, add a bit more boiling water.  If you have extra water, save and use as veggie stock for soup.
  • Once hydrated to perfection (according to your tastes), mix in all other ingredients besides the fat.
  • Heat a cast iron or other frying pan on medium heat.  Melt the fat.  Heat the melted fat until a sprinkle of water over the pan pops and fizzles.
  • Place three large scoopfuls of hashbrown mix into the pan on low-medium heat in three separate patties about 1/2" thick.
  • Fry the hashbrowns about 4 minutes on each side, flipping them each twice. It takes roughly 15 mintues to completely cook the hashbrowns. The flipping keeps the heat evenly distributed and helps prevent burning.
  • Add more fat as needed and continue cooking until the mix is gone.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

The edges of the hashbrowns should be crispy and the insides cooked fork-tender when done.
Some people prefer to truly fry their hashbrown, submerging them in oil. I prefer the oil to come about halfway up the 1/2" thick hashbrowns. As long as the hashbrowns are cooked all the way through, either way will work!
