Sunchoke Hash Browns

Sunchoke Hash Browns are a delightful twist on the classic breakfast dish, featuring the nutty flavor and crunchy texture of sunchokes. This Paleo-friendly recipe is perfect for a hearty brunch, packed with nutrients and flavor.

Ingredients

• Sunchokes - 300 grams
• Red onion - 1 small, finely chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Eggs - 2, for serving (optional)

Steps

1. Wash and scrub the sunchokes thoroughly, then peel and grate them using a box grater or food processor.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the grated sunchokes, chopped red onion, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
4. Once the oil is hot, add half of the sunchoke mixture to the skillet, pressing it down to form a compact patty. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown on the bottom.
5. Flip the patty carefully and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet, cooking for another 5-7 minutes until the other side is golden brown and crispy.
6. Remove the hash browns from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining sunchoke mixture.
7. Serve hot, optionally topped with a fried or poached egg.
