FRIED BACON HASHBROWN

FRIED BACON HASHBROWN 3 medium potatoes 1 small onion bacon, chopped 1 tbsp self-raising flour 1/2 tbsp milk 1 egg freshly ground black pepper vegetable oil (for deep-frying) sea salt Peel and coarsely grate the potatoes and onions and place in a large mixing bowl. Finely chop the bacon and add to the same bowl, together with the flour, milk, egg and a good grinding of black pepper. Mix well to combine. Heat 3 inches of your oil in a deep pan and place heaped tablespoonfuls of the potato mixture in to fry – you will need to do them in two batches. Deep fry for 2 minutes until the edges start to turn golden then flip over and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Drain on kitchen towels and season liberally with salt. Eat immediately, or keep warm in a low oven until ready to serve.
