Instructions

1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

b) Coarsely grate the potatoes (no need to peel).

c) Place the grated potatoes in a fine sieve over a large bowl and squeeze the potato to remove some of the liquid, 1-2 mins. Discard the liquid.

d) Place the grated potato in a large, clean bowl along with the roasted spice and herb blend, one third of the eggs and the flour (see pantry for both amounts). Season generously with salt and pepper, then mix to combine.

 

2

a) Drizzle a generous amount of oil onto a lined baking tray. 

b) Place the potato mixture onto the tray in 4 equal piles. Flatten each pile to approximately 1-2cm thickness. Leave some room on the tray for your bacon to be added in step 3.

c) Drizzle each hash brown with oil and bake on the top shelf of your oven, 15 mins.

3

a) When the hash browns have cooked for 15 mins, remove them from the oven and flip over using a spatula.

b) Lay the bacon on the tray next to the potato hash browns and return to the oven until golden brown and crispy, 10-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.

4

a) Meanwhile, grate the cheese. 

b) Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, crack in each remaining egg (see pantry for amount) and cook for 4-5 mins, or until the egg white is cooked and the yolk is the firmness you desire. Lower the heat as needed. IMPORTANT: Ensure egg whites are fully cooked.

5

a) When the hash browns and bacon have 3-5 mins remaining in the oven, drizzle the maple syrup over the bacon and sprinkle the cheese over the hash browns.

b) Return to the oven until the cheese has melted, 3-5 mins.

c) Halve the burger buns and warm in the oven, 2-3 mins.

6

a) Divide the ketchup (see pantry for amount) over the lids and bases of the warmed burger buns.

b) Top each bun base with two cheesy hash browns. Lay the maple bacon rashes over the hash browns, then top with a fried egg each.

c) Sandwich on the bun lids to finish.

Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Delicious and tasty, though some found it bland. Consider adding more salt to enhance the flavour.
  • Ease of prep: Preparation takes longer than expected for breakfast, with grating and drying potatoes being particularly time-consuming.
  • Suggestions: Try adding fresh onion to the hash browns instead of onion powder for a more balanced flavour.
  • Portions: Some customers felt the meat portions could be larger for a more satisfying meal.
