Hash Browns Ingredients
Method
Directions to Make Hash Browns
- 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 of cold water to remove excess starch. Let them soak for about 10 minutes.

Drain and Dry
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove as much moisture as possible.

Sauté the Onion
Finely chop the onion and heat half the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Cook the Hash Browns
Add the grated potatoes to the skillet with the onions. Press them down into an even layer and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Flip the hash browns using a spatula, adding the remaining oil if needed, and cook for another 5-7 minutes until the other side is golden and crispy.
