Preparation

Peel and Grate Potatoes
Peel the russet potatoes and then grate them using a box grater or a food processor. You should have about 4 cups of grated potatoes.

Rinse and Drain
Place the grated potatoes in a large bowl and rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch. Drain well and press out as much moisture as possible using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Season the Potatoes
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes with salt and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.

Once the oil is hot, carefully add the grated potato mixture to the skillet, spreading it out evenly. Press down gently with a spatula to form a compact layer.

Fry Until Golden
