Classic Hash Browns

Instructions

1. 1

   Peel and grate the potatoes. Place the grated potatoes in a bowl of cold water to prevent browning.

2. 2

   Finely chop the onion.

3. 3

   Drain the grated potatoes and squeeze out as much moisture as possible using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

4. 4

   In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes, chopped onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

5. 5

   Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

6. 6

   Add the potato mixture to the skillet, spreading it out evenly.

7. 7

   Cook for about 5-7 minutes on one side, or until golden brown and crispy. Flip the hash browns and cook for another 5-7 minutes on the other side.

8. 8

   Once both sides are golden brown and crispy, remove the hash browns from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

9. 9

   Serve hot and enjoy your Classic Hash Browns!
