1
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the russet potatoes using a vegetable peeler. Rinse them under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
2
Grate the Potatoes
Using a box grater or a food processor with a grating attachment, grate the peeled potatoes into a large bowl.
3
Soak and Drain
Fill the bowl with cold water to cover the grated potatoes. Let them soak for about 10 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain the potatoes well and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

4
Season the Potatoes
In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes with salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix well to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated.
5
Heat the Oil and Butter
In a large skillet, add the vegetable oil and butter over medium heat. Allow the butter to melt and the oil to heat up until shimmering.
6
Cook the Hash Browns
Add the seasoned grated potatoes to the skillet in an even layer. Press down gently with a spatula to form a compact layer. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
7
Flip and Finish Cooking
Carefully flip the hash browns using a large spatula. Cook the other side for another 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
8
Serve
Once cooked, remove the hash browns from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Cut into wedges or squares and serve hot.
