Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large potatoes
- 1 small onion (optional)
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Start by peeling and grating the potatoes. If you’re including the onion, go ahead and grate it too.
- Rinse the grated potatoes under cold water to wash away excess starch, then pat them dry with a clean towel.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Spread the grated potatoes and onion (if using) into an even layer in the hot skillet.
- Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Cook for about 5-7 minutes until one side turns golden brown and crispy.
- Flip the hash browns and cook the other side until it’s equally crispy.
- Once done, remove them from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
- Serve hot, ideally with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
For the crispiest results, opt for starchy potatoes like Russets and don’t skip patting them dry.
