Hashbrowns
Ingredients
- 1 pound (450g) russet potatoes, peeled
- 3 tablespoons (45ml) canola oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- Shred potatoes on the largest holes of a box grater.
- Wrap potatoes in a kitchen towel or several layers of cheesecloth and twist
to squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
- Transfer potatoes to a plate lined with 2 layers of paper towels. Cook in a
microwave on high for 2 minutes.
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When oil
shimmers, add shredded potato. Season with a large pinch of salt and pepper.
Using a spatula, press potato into an even layer. Cook until golden brown on
the bottom, about 2 minutes. Flip potatoes with spatula and brown on the
other side, about 2 minutes longer. Remove and drain on a paper towel–lined
plate. Serve immediately.
