Crispy Hashbrowns and Eggs

A delightful breakfast featuring crispy hashbrowns paired with fluffy eggs. Perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large potatoes
  • 2 eggs
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Oil for frying
  • Optional: chopped herbs for garnish

Instructions

  1. Begin by peeling the potatoes and grating them into a bowl.
  2. Rinse the grated potatoes under cold water to remove excess starch.
  3. In a skillet, heat some oil over medium heat.
  4. Add the drained grated potatoes, spreading them out evenly in the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through until they become crispy and golden brown.
  5. Meanwhile, prepare the eggs in another pan to your preferred style—scrambled, fried, or poached.
  6. Season both the hashbrowns and eggs with salt and pepper.
  7. Plate the crispy hashbrowns, topping them with your cooked eggs. Garnish with chopped herbs if desired.

Notes

For extra crunch, consider adding a bit of cornstarch to the grated potatoes before frying. Don’t overcrowd the skillet; cook in batches if necessary to keep everything crispy.
