About the Hungry Jack's Hash Brown

The Hungry Jack's Hash Brown is $3.00 and 685 kJ. Golden, crunchy seasoned potato, and it is the cheapest item on the breakfast menu as well as the one that turns up in the most orders.

A hash brown is the only thing on the Hungry Jack's breakfast menu with real crunch to it. Wraps are soft, rolls are soft, toasties are soft. That makes the hash brown less of a side and more of a structural component of a breakfast order, which is exactly why it also appears inside the Big BBQ Brekky Wrap and the Mega.

The shape matters more than it looks. A flat oval hash brown has a high surface area for its volume, so almost all of it is crust and only a thin core is soft. That is the opposite of a thick cut chip, and it is why a hash brown goes soft so quickly once it cools. Eat it first, not last.

The numbers are modest: 11g fat, 15.2g carbs and 244mg sodium for 685 kJ, which is around 8% of an adult daily intake. Protein at 1.4g is nothing. This is a small, cheap addition rather than a meal component.

Who it suits: everyone ordering breakfast, essentially. At $3.00 it is the cheapest way to make any breakfast order feel complete, and the only crunch available before 11am.

Pair it with any brekky wrap or roll, or with a Jack's Cafe coffee for the cheapest breakfast on the menu. The full breakfast menu is here.

How to Make the Hungry Jack's Hash Brown at Home?

Homemade hash browns beat frozen ones easily, and the entire difference is squeezing the water out of the potato. Do that properly and everything else follows. Makes 4 servings.

Tips

  • Wring the potato dry. Every failed hash brown in history was too wet.
  • Do not touch them for the first four minutes. The crust needs to form before the hash brown can be moved.
  • Cornflour rather than plain flour. Plain flour gives a doughy edge; cornflour crisps.

Variations

  • Add grated onion, squeezed dry as well, for a rosti style version.
  • Put one inside a brekky wrap for a Big BBQ Brekky Wrap.
  • Grate in a little cheese for the last minute of cooking on the second side.

Serve immediately, salted. A hash brown has about three minutes at its best and there is no way to extend it.
