I live in South Texas USA and our hashbrowns are 1/4 inch sized diced potatoes fried in oil over medium-high heat until crispy golden brown!. We add diced onion, and for us Tex-Mex eaters we also add sliced jalapenos while frying, then drain on paper towels!. We serve them hot with shredded cheddar cheese, and/or ketchup, salsa, or hot sauce (Tobasco), or what the Waffle House Diner calls "Smothered"!.!.!.chili, cheese, peppers, and onions!. We also have Potatoes Rancheros which is a Tex-Mex dish of diced fried potatoes with Ranchero Sauce (Tomatos and Peppers w/ liquid broth to make into a spicy sauce)!. Then we have Mashed Potatoes which are boiled potatoes mashed with milk, salt-pepper, and butter!. We also have baked potato which is a whole potato wrapped in foil and baked at 400 degrees for 1 hour!. Then you unwrap it and slice open the top and cover it with butter, sour creme, chopped fried bacon bits, and green onions!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Mash is essentially pureed potatoes, where as hash browns are small lumps of potatoes pressed together into a shape and fried!. Hash browns don't have veg in them!. Essentially you are right, hash browns are bubble and squeak made just from potato, but they are traditionally deep fried, where as bubble and squeak is generally shallow fried!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
What's a bubble/squeak fry!? Most fried taters don't have veggies in them!. Hash browns can come in many different media!. Some are just grated taters in a bag, and some come preformed!. I've never fried mashed taters before!.
Our Waffle Houses sell a variety of Hashers!. There are usually 10 ingredients that you can add to them!. Cheese, Salsa, Egg, Ham, Green Pepper, Onion, Jalepeno and stuff!. When you order all of them, they call it Covered and Smothered!. It covers a whole plate and is usually enough to turn ones' stomach if you're not used to it!.
I just like mine preformed, fried and topped with cheese!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
