Equipment
- Muffin pan
- Pan
- Blender
Ingredients
- 16 oz shredded hash browns
- 1 egg
- salt & pepper to taste
- 6 boneless pork chops
- salt, pepper & paprika to taste
- 10 mushrooms sliced
- 2 carrots shredded
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese divided
- 6 leek strips
- 4 eggs
- 8 oz spinach
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 tsp chili powder
Instructions
- Combine the shredded hash browns, egg, salt, and pepper. Form 6 equal patties from the mixture. Briefly fry the hash brown patties on both sides in a pan over medium heat and then place 1 hash brown patty per mold in a 6-cup muffin pan.
- Evenly pound the boneless pork chops as thin as possible and season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Heat some vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat and sauté the mushrooms and carrots. Spoon the vegetables over the pork chops and top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Briefly cook the leek strips in boiling water until tender. Pull the edges of each pork chop up in the shape of a money bag and tie a leek strip around the ends of each one. Skewer the stuffed pork dumplings – 3 to a skewer – and place a skewered dumpling on top of each hash brown patty in the muffin pan.
- Add the eggs, spinach, garlic, chili powder, salt, and pepper to a blender and blend until smooth. Divide the mixture between the 6 molds in the muffin pan, transfer the muffin pan to a preheated oven, and cook at 350°F for 25 minutes.
