In 12-inch nonstick skillet or griddle, heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high heat. Cook vegetable seasoning blend in oil 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Remove from heat.

In large bowl, stir vegetable seasoning blend, both potatoes, Bisquick mix, cheese and thyme. Add milk and egg, stirring just until moist.

In same skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium heat. Spoon one-third of the batter into 4 (1/4-cup) mounds onto hot skillet; flatten slightly. Cook 4 to 6 minutes, turning once, until lightly browned. Remove from skillet; cover to keep warm. Repeat twice with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and batter. Serve with sour cream, if desired.
