- Makes12 puffs
Ingredients
227-g pkg sliced button mushrooms
1 small red bell pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cup frozen hash browns
2 tsp paprika, preferably smoked
1 pinch salt and pepper
8 eggs
1/3 cup milk
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 green onions, sliced
1 cup crumbled feta
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375F (190C). Coat a large frying pan with oil and set over medium heat. When hot, add mushrooms. Stir often until browned around edges, 5 to 7 min. Add pepper, garlic, hash browns, paprika, salt and pepper. Stir often until potato has heated through, about 2 min. Turn into a bowl. Refrigerate until cool.
In a medium bowl, whisk eggs with milk, Dijon, salt and pepper. Coat a 12-cup muffin tin with oil. Divide mushroom mixture between cups. Sprinkle with green onions and feta. They will be very full. Pour some of the egg mixture overtop and let it soak through, then top with remaining egg mixture. Bake in centre of oven until set in centre, 25 to 30 min. Let stand 5 min., then run a knife around inside edge of cups. Carefully turn puffs out. Place on plates.
