[ Makes 5-6, 2.5" hash browns ]

Ingredients

6-8 cups pumpkin* or squash, grated
3-4 cups pecorino cheese, grated
1 egg
½ cup fresh rosemary, finely chopped
A pinch of paprika (optional)
Olive oil, a drizzle to pan fry
Salt, to taste

*Pumpkin is an Avoid for Type B secretors, substitute squash or sweet potato.

Directions

In a mixing bowl, beat the egg with a pinch of salt, paprika and the chopped rosemary. Grate in the squash or pumpkin and the pecorino. Mix well until all ingredients are well coated in the egg mixture.
Heat a little olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Spoon in 2 tablespoons of hash brown mixture from step 1 and flatten. Cook on one side until golden for about 3 minutes, flip and cover for another 2-3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

TIP: The pecorino cheese will melt very quickly and bind the hash browns. It is important to cover the pan to cook the squash through and prevent the cheese from burning!
