Denny's Style Breakfast

First, pour boiling water into a carton of shredded dehydrated potatoes and onion flakes. Wait until the potatoes have absorbed the water and cooled, then pour them into an enamel tray. Place this in the refrigerator near the grill.

Now when a breakfast order comes in, first put the bacon and sausage on the grill, unless you have some that's precooked (i.e. in the morning).

Then grab a handful of the potatoes, pour some grease on the grill and put the potatoes on top of that. Flatten with your flip.

Pancakes go on next (actually, pancakes and hashbrowns take about the same time). If there is any ham in the order, it goes on the heat now. Put the toast in the toaster, and lay out your plates. By this time the meat is ready to flip, then the hashbrowns. If they aren't brown enough on the first side, put a griddle weight on them and remember to serve the second side up.

Now the eggs - I assume you don't need any help with that. The pancakes should by now have bubbles on the surface that don't collapse. Turn 'em. The meat's ready to come off, next the hashbrowns, check the eggs, get the toast (butter it), last the pancakes.

Easy, no? If you've followed that, you qualify for a position in the exciting world of fry cooking. Oh, if you can't find dehydrated hashbrowns, just par-boil some potatoes, peel 'em & shred 'em, then proceed as above.
