Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the Russet potatoes and shred them using a box grater or a food processor. Place the shredded potatoes in a large bowl of cold water to remove excess starch.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Onion

    Finely chop the onion and set aside.

  3. 3

    Drain and Dry

    After soaking the potatoes for about 10 minutes, drain them and spread onto a clean kitchen towel. Pat them dry to remove as much moisture as possible.

  4. 4

    Mix Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded potatoes, chopped onion, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

  5. 5

    Heat the Oil

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

  6. 6

    Cook the Hash Browns

    Add the potato mixture to the skillet in a flat layer. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown. Flip the hash browns in sections and cook for another 5-7 minutes until the other side is golden and crispy.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot.
