These hash brown potatoes will beat restaurant hash browns hands down. I like to cook them very crisp and well done. I usually make one large pan-sized hash brown so I just have to flip once in the hot oil. These potatoes are superior to frozen or restaurant hash browns. I saw a similar recipe online and wanted to have a written copy for the kitchen so I did not have to watch the video each time I made these.
Ingredients
- 3 medium russet potatoes , peeled and shredded
- 0.5 medium yellow onion , chopped
- 0.25 cups all-purpose flour
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cups vegetable oil
Instructions
-
1
Rinse shredded potatoes in a colander with cold water until water runs clear. Place in a cheesecloth or clean dish towel and twist tightly to squeeze out all moisture.
-
2
Place potatoes in a bowl with onion, flour, salt, and pepper. Add egg and mix thoroughly.
-
3
Heat oil in a shallow, cast iron frying pan. Add potato mixture to the hot oil to form either on large or several smaller pancakes. Cook until browned and crispy, about 5 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel and serve hot.

Loaded Smashed Potato Salad
This loaded smashed potato salad is a delicioius side dish. Smashed potates are crisp on the edges and creamy in the middle and are paired with cheese, bacon, green onions, and a jazzed up sour cream mixture.
Vanilla Cream or Sauce
This is really delicious on its own, but I use it mainly to serve alongside brownies, bread pudding, apple pie, berries, or poached pears. You can either make this as a thicker cream or as a sauce. I love it as a cream for berries, poached pears or brownies and as a sauce over apple pie or bread pudding. Serve chilled over warm or cool desserts or just eat it on its own as a custard.
Basic Bean Soup
This is a simple, basic bean soup. It's very easy to assemble, and it tastes great, too! Try adding other vegetables, if desired.
