Smoked Salmon and Hash Brown Stack
Use hot-smoked salmon (the kind that flakes) for this dish, which is topped with sour cream seasoned with briny capers. You can also use smoked trout. If you make latkes (potato pancakes) for Hanukkah, you might want to save a few to use in place of prepared patties for these. 
Makes 1 serving
1 large egg
	1 tablespoon sour cream
	1 teaspoon minced capers
	1 frozen hash brown patty, cooked
	2 ounces smoked salmon or trout
Preheat the breakfast sandwich maker. Break the egg into a small bowl and pierce the yolk with a fork. In another small bowl, combine the sour cream and capers; set aside.
Place the hash brown patty in the bottom compartment of the heated sandwich maker and top it with the smoked fish. Lower the middle plate.
Pour the egg into to the top compartment. Close the sandwich maker.
Cook for 4 minutes, or until the egg is set. Slide open the middle plate to assemble the stack and remove it from the sandwich maker. Let cool a moment then top with the sour cream mixture.
