SloCooker Recipe - Ham & Potato Hash - cjs - 07-23-2009

This one is especially for Erin on Gymnastic nights!! Roy loved (3 helpings ) and I liked it very much also. He'll have some of it this a.m. with a fried egg on it, I'm sure.

Easy Ham & Potato Hash

32 oz. pkg. frozen hash brown potatoes, partially thawed (I used ~2 lbs. fresh potatoes*)
3/4 cup each – green and red bell pepper
3 cups cooked ham
8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups milk (I used mostly canned milk)
2 1/2 T. Dijon mustard
1 1/2 cups chopped scallions
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. garlic pepper

In 4-qt. slow cooker, combine the potatoes with the bell peppers and ham. Stir to mix well.

In a 1-qt. glass measure, blend the cream cheese and milk. Heat in microwave on high power 1 to 2 min., or till smooth when whisked together.

Stir in the mustard, 1 cup of the scallions, the garlic powder and pepper till blended. Pour this cream cheese mixture over the potatoes and ham – do not mix.

Cover and cook on low setting 5-6 hours, or till the potatoes are tender. Stir gently. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup scallions over the top and serve.

*Not because of food snobbishness, just had potatoes beginning to sprout!

Jean, this sounds so good! I just love my slow cooker. I am sure one could sub in sausage too. You know me and the linguica fettish! Thanks for sharing this, I may make it this week. Have not been cooking much at all with the house being for sale.

Many lookers yet, Theresa? Fingers crossed.

...or...

Mix together the same ingredients, minus the milk (or, perhaps, with one egg in place of the milk - either way, adjusting the consistency as necessary), shape into balls, and deep fry them as ham-and-potato croquettes.

sounds good, but after the canning yesterday, it was wonderful to just scoop up dinner!!!

We do love croquettes and like making them also.

Thanks Jean - I think this is on the menu tonight. I have fresh potatoes, but not frozen. Did you cube them or shred? I have everything else on hand.

Jean, how did you use the fresh potatoes? Slices (thick or thin)? Dice (large or small)? Any other adjustments (e.g. browning the potatoes first)?

Oops! Hadn't seen all of Erin's message when I posted this. LOL!


Re: SloCooker Recipe - Ham & Potato Hash - cjs - 07-23-2009

I shredded them thru the large holes.

This sounds really yummy. I just wish I had ham. But it's copied all the same!
