    Bag of frozen hash browns can save the day when guests are coming or you are too tired to cook. We all love having hashbrowns in Mc Donalds and other fast food restaurants. At fast food stores they cook hash browns in deep fryer. Air fryer hash browns are better than fried ones you eat outside, as they are not fried. Yes, they retain the same crunch.

    Most frozen potato patty / aloo tikki , fries , potato wedges and hashbrowns already have oil added to them before they are frozen. Hence, deep frying them only increases calories. Air frying them helps you enjoy an occasional snack yet maintain your weight. Learn to make it here in easy steps.

    Why is it so popular?

    We all love potatoes. Be it old or young, kid or adults every one has a weakness for spuds. These come closest to aloo tikki you get in India. It usually has 4 main ingredients potatoes, maize flour, canola oil and salt. They are great as a filler in sandwiches or burgers too. Sometimes they may be the only vegetarian/ vegan dish you may get at a restaurant chain abroad in remote areas.

    • Frozen hash browns (like these I found at amazon)

    These ingredients have to be used straight from the freezer. Do not thaw them.

    Equipment

    • Air fryer (we use the ninja foodi op300 air fryer)
    • oil spray

    I must say frozen hashbrowns in Ninja foodi actually give a good competition to restaurant ones. They are golden and crunchy and have a soft interior. Keeping frozen ones at homes always help when you are too tired to cook.

    Hint: Always keep your chimney on when using air fryer so that any fumes emitted are removed from the kitchen.

    Variations

    If you like your meal spicy, you may coat them in peri peri. You can also brush any spice mix + 1tbsp oil to give it a new flavor like Moroccan, Sriracha or Cajun.

    Storage

    Always eat it fresh. If you have something left over. Freeze or refrigerate it in an air tight plastic box. Air fry it before you serve.

    Top tip

    You do not need to brush or use an oil spray as they already have enough fat in it when commercially made.
