Why my frozen potatoes are soggy? 3

Why Is My Hash Brown Casserole Soggy?

Description

 
 

A soggy hash brown casserole often results from excess moisture in the potatoes. This can happen if frozen hash browns aren’t fully thawed and drained, or if fresh potatoes are not thoroughly dried before use. Additionally, too much liquid in the recipe, such as milk or cream, can contribute to the sogginess. Properly preparing the potatoes and balancing the liquid ingredients will help ensure a perfectly crispy casserole.

Ingredients

  • Frozen hash browns, thawed and drained
  • Cream of chicken soup
  • Sour cream
  • Shredded cheddar cheese
  • Diced onions
  • Butter
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

Instructions:

 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Mix thawed hash browns, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, cheddar cheese, diced onions, melted butter, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  3. Spread the mixture evenly into a greased baking dish.
  4. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until golden and bubbly.
  5. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure hash browns are fully thawed and drained to avoid a soggy casserole.
