If you are fond of one-dish meals, you will surely love this recipe. This hash brown cup is not only great for breakfast or brunch but for lunch or dinner too. You can serve this on its own or with fresh toast, or tossed green salad on the side.

This is also a great make-ahead dish as it can be served at room temperature.

• You can also use mashed potato, bacon or flattened bread for the crust.
