Good, old-fashioned, restaurant-style hash browns. Perfect with hot pepper sauce and ketchup!

Ingredients

  • 2 medium russet potatoes , shredded
  • 0.5 medium onion , finely chopped
  • 0.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup oil for frying , or as needed
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Gather all ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse shredded potatoes until water is clear, then drain and squeeze dry. Place shreds in a bowl and mix in the onion, flour, and egg until evenly distributed.

  3. 3

    Heat about 1/4 inch of oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is sizzling hot, place potatoes into the pan in a 1/2 inch thick layer. Cover the whole bottom of the pan, or make separate piles like pancakes.

  4. 4

    Cook until nicely browned on the bottom, then flip over and brown on the other side. It should take at least 5 minutes per side. If you are cooking them in one big piece, it can be cut into quarters for easier flipping.

  5. 5

    Remove from pan, and drain on paper towels. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.

  6. 6

    Serve hot and enjoy!
