  • A home cook has shared mouth-watering images of loaded hash brown recipe
  • The delicious concoction requires eight hash browns from a McDonald's store
  • Then you add bacon, cheese, chives and sour cream before frying it in the oven
  • Potato gems work just as well to create a delicious twist on the classic nachos 

A home cook has wowed thousands with his loaded hash brown recipe complete with bacon, cheese, chives and sour cream.

Mouth-watering photos of the meal were shared on social media by a man from Sydney with instructions on how to cook it in Kmart's $129 3-in-1 Air Fryer Oven.

'I cooked McDonald's hash browns first on 200 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes,' the amateur chef said, showing how he placed eight golden potato slices onto a baking tray. 

'I cooked McDonald's hash browns first on 200 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes,' the amateur chef said (he started with six before squeezing an extra two on the tray)

'Once they were cooked I added bacon and cheese - both tasty and mozzarella - before cooking them again for another five minutes at the same temperature,' he said (pictured)

Pulling the concoction out of the mini oven for a third time the man proceeded to add chives and sour cream on top for extra flavour.  

The result looked like a modern potato twist on a classic nachos dinner, and should be served immediately.

In a separate photo he showed how potato gems - which are essentially cylinder-shaped hash browns - could be cooked in the same way.
