Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and rinse the Russet potatoes under cold water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

  2. 2

    Grate the Potatoes

    Using a box grater or a food processor with a grating attachment, shred the potatoes into a large bowl. If using, grate the onion and mix it with the potatoes.

  3. 3

    Remove Excess Moisture

    Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This will help achieve crispy hashbrowns.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers but is not smoking.

  5. 5

    Cook the Hashbrowns

    Carefully add the grated potatoes to the skillet, spreading them out evenly. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Press down with a spatula to form a flat layer.

  6. 6

    Flip the Hashbrowns

    Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy. Carefully flip the hashbrowns using a large spatula, adding a bit more oil if needed.

  7. 7

    Finish Cooking

    Cook for another 5-7 minutes on the other side until crispy and golden brown. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Remove the hashbrowns from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite breakfast items.
