Ingredients

Scale
  • 900 g frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed
  • ½ cup butter, melted
  • 2 cups sour cream
  • 1 can (300 g) cream of mushroom soup
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup onion, finely diced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups cornflakes, crushed
  • ¼ cup butter, melted for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease a 9×13 baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed hash browns, melted butter, sour cream, cream of mushroom soup, shredded cheddar cheese, diced onion, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Mix gently until everything is evenly combined.
  4. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  5. In a small bowl, mix the crushed cornflakes with the melted butter for the topping.
  6. Sprinkle the cornflake mixture evenly over the casserole.
  7. Bake uncovered for 45 minutes until bubbly and golden on top.
  8. Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Make sure hash browns are fully thawed to avoid excess moisture.
  • Freshly grated cheese melts more smoothly than pre shredded.
  • Let the casserole rest before serving so it sets properly.
