Method

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180°C fan / 400°F.

   
2. 2

   Make a flax egg by combining the ground flaxseeds with 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl and leave to one side to thicken.

   
3. 3

   Meanwhile, grate the potatoes, then use a tea towel to remove as much moisture as possible by folding the towel around the grated potato and squeezing the excess water into a bowl.

   
4. 4

   Put the grated potato into a mixing bowl with the carrots, onion, garlic, parsley, vegan cheese, flax egg, chickpea flour and generous pinches of salt and pepper.

   
5. 5

   Use a wooden spoon to combine all the ingredients together. Then take a small handful of the mixture and place it on a tray lined with baking paper. Shape the mixture into a small rectangle roughly 1cm (0.5”) thick, then repeat until all the mixture is used up.

   
6. 6

   Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the hash browns become golden brown.
