1
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the russet potatoes and grate them using a box grater or food processor. Place the grated potatoes in a bowl, cover with cold water, and let them soak for about 15 minutes to remove excess starch.
2
Drain and Dry
After soaking, drain the potatoes and rinse them under cold water. Use a clean kitchen towel to thoroughly squeeze out any excess moisture.

3
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until shimmering.
4
Cook the Onions and Garlic
Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
5
Add the Potatoes
Spread the grated potatoes evenly in the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper. Press down gently with a spatula to form a compact layer.
6
Cook Until Golden
Cook the potatoes without stirring for about 8-10 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip the hash browns using a spatula, adding more oil if necessary, and cook the other side for another 8-10 minutes until crispy and golden.

7
Add Toppings
If desired, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese and sliced green onions over the hash browns during the last few minutes of cooking to melt the cheese.
8
Serve
Remove the hash browns from the skillet and serve hot with a dollop of sour cream on top, if desired.
