Method

Heat a non-stick frying pan and spray with the cooking spray. Gently cook the bacon for 5 mins until crispy. Remove and drain on kitchen paper.
Put the green vegetables into a large bowl. Add the mashed potatoes, two mustards and cooked bacon. Season with black pepper and mix together.
Using wet hands, divide the mixture into four and then shape each quarter into a large patty or burger shape.
Heat the frying pan you cooked the bacon in and spray again with the cooking spray. Gently fry the potato cakes for 10 mins, turning once (do not attempt to turn until after 5 mins). Once cooked, transfer to a plate and keep warm.
Meanwhile, bring a pan of water to the boil and add the vinegar. Crack the eggs into a cup and gently add to the pan. Poach for 5 mins until opaque. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on top of the hash browns. Season with pepper and serve.
