Cacio e pepe hash brown breakfast casserole

American-style breakfast casserole is the easy brunch recipe you need in your life. Here’s why this recipe is a fantastic way of cooking a stress-free brunch…

• Fusion flavours: There’s blend of  delicious inspirations in this simple brunch: Italian cacio e pepe meets Spanish tortilla (the hash browns), all served as an American ‘breakfast casserole’ (a must-try update on quiche).
• Zero-fuss: Just whisk everything together and pop it in the oven. Once cooked, place the breakfast casserole on the table for people alongside the salty butter and crusty bread, so everyone can assemble their own sandwiches. If there’s not melted butter trickling down your hand when you’re eating it, you’re not doing it right.
• Spring feast: Serve this dish for a laid-back brunch in late spring, when British asparagus is at its peak.
