Ingredients:
- A bag of frozen diced hash browns. Any brand will do! I personally use unseasoned diced hash browns but you can get pre-seasoned ones too.
How to make:
Step one:
First, place the frozen hash browns on the trays of your air fryer or in the basket.
Step two:
Cook the frozen diced potatoes for 25-27 minutes at 400F, ensuring you rotate the trays half way through, or give the hash browns a toss if you have a basket style air fryer.
Step three:
Lastly, transfer the cooked hash browns to a bowl and toss them in the oil, salt and pepper. Then enjoy!
Chef's tips:
- Every model of air fryer is different so you may have to adjust the cooking time depending on the model you use.
- Depending on the size of your hash browns you may need to adjust the cooking time. If you have very finely chopped hash browns I recommend decreasing the cooking time.
- Store these hash browns in the fridge in an air tight container for up to 5 days.
- If you don't cook the full bag of frozen hash browns, seal the bag and store it in the freezer until you are ready to use.
- If you have any leftover cooked hash browns, store them in the fridge in an air tight container for up to 5 days.
Variations:
- If you buy pre-seasoned and pre-oiled hash browns you likely won't need to use the oil or salt and pepper.
- Feel free to add other spices such as ground cinnamon, chili powder, Italian seasoning etc to give these hash browns a different flavour.

Love the simplicity of the recioe..Be aware all hashbrowns are not equal in size. So adjust accordingly. I reduce temp and time 1st batch was overdone.
