Description

Delicious and satisfying Hash Brown Avocado Toast featuring crispy fried hash brown patties topped with creamy mashed avocado and perfectly poached eggs, garnished with fresh chives. This versatile breakfast or brunch dish combines crispy textures with smooth, rich flavors for a nutritious and flavorful meal.

Ingredients

For the Hash Browns and Eggs

  • 6 hash brown patties
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar

For the Avocado Topping

  • 2 avocados
  • 2 tablespoons chives, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice

Instructions

  1. Poach Eggs: Add at least 3 inches of water and 1 tablespoon white vinegar to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Bring the water close to a boil until small bubbles form and pop on the surface. Crack each egg into a fine mesh strainer to remove watery whites, then transfer to a small bowl. Gently tip eggs one at a time into the hot water, spacing them so the whites don’t touch. Cover with a lid and poach for 3 minutes 30 seconds for large eggs. Remove eggs with a slotted spoon carefully and drain on paper towels. For firmer yolks, dip eggs back into the water for an additional 15-30 seconds.
  2. Cook Hash Browns: Pour about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil into a 12-inch cast iron or large skillet and heat to 350°F (or until a wooden skewer bubbles steadily when inserted). Carefully add 4 frozen hash brown patties in a single layer and fry them for 8-10 minutes, flipping carefully halfway through. Use a slotted spatula to transfer the hash browns to a paper towel-lined plate and season immediately with salt.
  3. Assemble the Toast: Reheat poached eggs by dipping them briefly in the reserved hot water for 30-60 seconds, then place again on paper towels. Cut avocados in half, remove pits, and mash the flesh in a bowl with lime juice, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy. Place 2 hash browns on each plate and top each with a scoop of mashed avocado. Add a poached egg on top of each, then garnish with chopped chives, additional salt, and pepper. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use fresh eggs for the best poaching results.
  • Be careful when frying hash browns to maintain oil temperature for crispy exteriors.
  • Adjust lime juice and seasoning in avocado to personal taste.
  • Can prepare eggs ahead and reheat briefly in hot water to save time when assembling.
  • Optional toppings could include hot sauce, sliced tomatoes, or crumbled feta for extra flavor.
