Hash Brown Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and shred them using a grater or food processor. Place the shredded potatoes in a bowl and rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch. Drain and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

  2. 2

    Chop the Onion

    Finely chop the onion and set it aside.

  3. 3

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded potatoes, chopped onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.

  4. 4

    Heat the Skillet

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil and butter over medium heat until hot.

  5. 5

    Cook the Hash Browns

    Add the potato mixture to the skillet and spread it out evenly. Press down with a spatula to form a compact layer. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.

  6. 6

    Flip and Finish Cooking

    Using a large spatula, carefully flip the hash brown over. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes on the other side until crispy. You may need to add a bit more oil if it looks dry.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Once both sides are crispy and golden, remove from heat and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious hash browns!
