Description

These homemade hasbrowns are unbelievably delicious. They are crispy on the outside and firm and tasty on the inside. Make them your own by adding chopped green and red peppers and cheddar cheese for a great twist.

Ingredients

• 4 medium russet potatoes, freshly shredded
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
• garlic powder, to taste
• 2 eggs
• olive oil for frying, or as needed or spray pan with cooking spray
• salt and pepper to taste

Steps

1. Rinse shredded potatoes until water is clear, then drain and squeeze dry. Place shreds in a bowl, and mix in onion, flour, and eggs until evenly distributed. Season with garlic powder, salt and pepper.
2. Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is sizzling hot, place potatoes into the skillet in a 1/2 inch thick layer. Cover the whole bottom of the pan, or make separate piles like pancakes.
3. 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.
