Hash Browns

Method

Preparing the Hash Browns

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and grate the Russet potatoes using a box grater or a food processor. Rinse the grated potatoes in cold water to remove excess starch, then drain well and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.

  2. 2

    Cook the Hash Browns

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the grated potatoes, season with salt and black pepper, and press down with a spatula to form a flat layer. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Flip the hash browns and add the remaining olive oil to the skillet. Cook the other side for another 5-7 minutes until golden and crispy.

Cooking the Toppings

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a separate skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and green bell pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened and slightly caramelized.

  2. 4

    Add the Meat

    Stir in your choice of diced ham, crumbled bacon, or cooked sausage into the sautéed vegetables. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes to heat through.

Assembling the Dish

  1. 5

    Combine Everything

    Once the hash browns are cooked, top them with the sautéed onion, green pepper, and meat mixture. Sprinkle the cheese of your choice evenly over the top.

  2. 6

    Melt the Cheese

    Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
