McDonald’s reveals new breakfast menu item that’s a twist on a classic
MCDONALD'S has revealed an all-new breakfast item which will delight lovers of an already popular breakfast item.
The fast-food giant will soon start selling mini hashbrowns across its 1,300 plus sites in the UK.
The fried snack is expected to land in stores on October 16.
McDonald's already sells larger hashbrowns as part of its regular breakfast menu which is available from 6am-11am.
These cost £1.19 and contain 127 calories.
However, these new treats will be smaller with a five-piece single portion costing £1.49.

Meanwhile, the 15-piece sharebox will set customers back £2.99.
It is not yet clear if the hasbrowns will become a permanent menu item or will only be available for a limited period of time.
McDonald's regularly shakes up its menu to make way for new items and to get rid of old ones.
Just last week, Maccies teased the return of its McRib.
A test notification for the boneless pork burger was sent out on the McDonald's rewards app, sending customers into a frenzy.
When asked if the McRib is coming back, a spokesperson said: "McDonald’s is always looking to innovate with new and exciting menu items, as well as bringing back the fan favourites.
"If you’re keen to be the first to receive more info from McDonald’s stay tuned."
The McRib was first added to the main UK McDonald's menu in 1981 but was taken off just four years later.
The burger, which comes with a boneless pork patty covered in barbecue sauce and topped with onions and pickles, has made temporary reappearances since.
