- 2 cups (¾ pound) peeled, shredded russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 3 green onions, white and half of green stems, chopped
- 2 thin slices antibiotic-free ham, sliced into thin strips
- 4 eggs, whisked
- ¼ cup milk
- ¼ cup sharp cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven broiler. Place shredded potatoes on a paper towel; cover with another paper towel. Press down, and let sit for 10 minutes to absorb any water.
Heat oil in a small, oven-safe omelet pan or cast-iron skillet. Add potatoes and onions; brown 10–15 minutes. Press potato mixture into pan to form a crust. Top with ham strips.
Whisk eggs with milk. Pour into pan, and shake to distribute eggs. Cook 5–7 minutes.
Top with cheese, and place under broiler. Keep under heat until eggs are set and cheese is brown. Add salt and pepper to taste.
