Hash Brown Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Potatoes

   Peel the potatoes and grate them using a box grater or a food processor. Rinse the grated potatoes in cold water to remove excess starch, then drain and squeeze out as much moisture as possible using a clean kitchen towel.

2. 2

   Chop the Onion

   Finely chop the onion and add it to the grated potatoes.

3. 3

   Season the Mixture

   In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes, chopped onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.

4. 4

   Heat the Oil

   In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

5. 5

   Cook the Hash Browns

   Add the potato mixture to the skillet in an even layer. Press down with a spatula to form a compact cake. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.

6. 6

   Flip and Finish

   Carefully flip the hash brown using a plate or another spatula and add the butter to the skillet. Cook the other side for another 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Remove from skillet and drain excess oil on paper towels.

7. 7

   Serve

   Cut the hash brown into wedges and serve hot as a side dish or breakfast item.
