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. 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. 2

    Place potatoes in a bowl with onion, flour, salt, and pepper. Add egg and mix thoroughly.

  3. 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.
