Ingredients
Dairy & Eggs
- 7-8 Eggs beaten
- 1 tbsp Heavy Cream whisked
- 2 tbsp Cheddar Cheese grated
Instructions
- Wash, peel, and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Submerge them in a bowl of water to prevent browning while prepping other ingredients.
- Dice the onions and finely chop the coriander.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, pepper, coriander, heavy cream, and grated cheese until well combined.
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Drain the potatoes and pat them dry. Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the potatoes and roast until slightly golden brown and tender. This helps develop their flavor and ensures they cook through in the frittata.
- Add the diced onions to the pan and sauté until translucent. Season lightly with salt and pepper, keeping in mind that the egg mixture is already seasoned.
- Grease a muffin tin to prevent sticking. This recipe makes 8-10 frittatas.
- Spoon the potato and onion mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about two-thirds full.
- Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes and onions, filling each cup almost to the top.
- Garnish each frittata with a few sliced olives. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the tops are lightly golden.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips

- Don't overcrowd the pan when browning the hash browns. Work in batches to ensure even cooking.
- Season the hash browns generously with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices before forming the nests.
Storage Instructions
- Store leftover hash brown nests in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a toaster oven or skillet until warmed through.
