1
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the russet potatoes and grate them using a box grater or a food processor. Place the grated potatoes in a bowl of cold water to remove excess starch.
2
Drain and Dry
After soaking for about 10 minutes, drain the potatoes and rinse them under cold water. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
3
Sauté the Onion
In a large skillet, heat half of the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the grated onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
4
Cook the Hash Browns
Add the grated potatoes to the skillet, mixing well with the onions. Press down with a spatula to form a flat layer. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown.
5
Flip and Finish Cooking
Carefully flip the hash browns in sections and add the remaining oil to the skillet. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the other side is golden brown and crispy.
6
Serve
Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite breakfast accompaniments.
