Ingredients

  • 2 Ready-made hash browns
  • 115g Cottage Cheese
  • 1 Clove Garlic cut width wise
  • 1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tsp Lemon Zest
  • 1/2 tsp Crushed Red Chili Flakes
  • 1/4 cup Microgreens
  • 1/4 tsp Salt and Pepper
  • 1 tsp grated Parmesan Cheese (optional)

Method

  • Preheat oven to 230°C.
  • Place hash browns in a single layer on a baking tray or on a foil lined tray lightly sprayed with cooking oil.
  • Bake for 7 minutes, flip the hash browns over, and continue baking for an additional 7-8 minutes or until they reach your desired level of doneness. They should be golden brown in colour.
  • While the hash browns are baking, combine the cottage cheese, lemon zest, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Try to strain any excess liquid out of the cottage cheese before adding.
  • In a separate bowl, toss the microgreens in the lemon juice.
  • Once the hash browns are nice and crispy, rub the sliced raw garlic clove on their surface to impart the flavour. Be sparing with application, as the garlic will be quite strong in this form!
  • Top the hash browns with cottage cheese and the dressed microgreens. Top with a drizzle of EVOO and the crushed red chili flakes. Option to grate some parmesan over the top. Enjoy!
