Hash Brown

What is it?

Two potato patties, sold as a pair, with a grated potato centre and a crisp, browned exterior. They're fried until the outside firms up while the middle stays soft and steamy. In Greggs' breakfast range, these sit alongside rolls, baguettes, and sausage-based items as a simple side rather than a filled item. British-style patties like these are usually flattened and oval, with a dry, crunchy surface and a pale potato interior. They're best eaten hot, when the contrast between the crisp shell and the fluffy inside is at its strongest. Add them to a bacon roll or eat them on their own with brown sauce.
