Hash Browns, Again/再びハッシュポテト

While having supper last night, my family discussed what to make with the remaining potatoes. I mentioned Kiki's and Sissi's suggestions, but my children said they wanted to have hash browns again.
昨日、夕食中に、家族で残りのじゃがいもで何を作るか話し合いました。Kikiさん、Sissiさんが薦める料理のことも話しましたが、子供たちはまたハッシュポテトが食べたいとのことです。

So, as part of supper tonight, I made hash browns again. This time, I changed the recipe in my own way. I mashed previously boiled potatoes, diced raw potatoes, mixed them together at a ratio of about 1:1, added some salt and pepper, as well as some potato starch.
と言うわけで、今日の夕飯にはまたハッシュポテトを作りました。今回は、レシピを自分流に変えました。前に茹でたじゃがいもをマッシュして、生のじゃがいもをさいの目に切り、およそ1:1の割合で混ぜ、塩コショウを少し入れ、片栗粉も少し入れました。 
First batch:
1回目:
12 pieces.
12個です。

Second and third batches:
2回目、3回目:
First batch:
1回目:

Second batch:
2回目:
Another 12 pieces.
また12個。

Third:
3回目:
11 pieces.
11個。

I deep-fried each batch at 160C for more than 5 minutes.
どの回も、160Cで5分以上揚げました。

While talking to my son tonight, I learned that he has never had McDonald's "hash potato". (In Japan, hash browns are called hash potato.)
今夜、息子と話している際、息子がマクドナルドの「ハッシュポテト」は食べたことがないことが分かりました(日本ではhash brownsはhash potatoと言います)。

I hope I can make other potato dish next time.
今度は別のじゃがいも料理を作りたいと思います。

Looks delicious! I actually love McDonald's hash browns (although they are so bad for you)! Once in a while though... ;)

Yangsze: I used to like McDonald's burgers and fries when I was much younger. Unfortunately, I have had their "hash potato" only once, and I don't recall how it tasted.

Wow! This is the first time I see this... I might have heard about hash browns, but never seen them or tasted. They look delicious.

Sissi: Yes, they are delicious, although mine may not look very appetizing. Anyway, my children loved them.
