Instructions

Remove the spaghetti squash from the skin.

Taking large handfuls of the squash in your hands, squeeze the squash a few good times over the sink to release excess water. Place in a large bowl.

Add to the squash the chives, garlic powder, salt & pepper, and egg. Stir thoroughly.

In a greased skillet, cook the squash mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, for about 10 minutes.

The squash is done when it is golden brown.

Immediately top with the cheddar cheese and ENJOY!!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Squeeze Out Excess Moisture 💧
After cooking your spaghetti squash, press it firmly in a fine-mesh strainer or wrap it in cheesecloth and squeeze out all excess liquid—this prevents soggy hash browns and ensures maximum crispiness.
Pre-Dry the Mixture 🧊
Spread your squeezed spaghetti squash on paper towels for 10 minutes before mixing with egg and cheese to allow surface moisture to evaporate for superior crust formation.
High Heat for Crispy Edges 🔥
Use medium-high to high heat with butter or oil to develop a golden, crispy exterior in the first 3-4 minutes, then reduce heat to prevent burning while the interior sets.
Don't Flip Too Early ⏱️
Resist the urge to move the hash browns—let them cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes per side to develop that coveted crispy crust before flipping once.
Layer Your Cheese Strategically 🧀
Mix half the cheddar into the patty mixture before cooking and sprinkle the remaining half on top during the last minute so it melts into every bite without burning.
