Hash Browned Potatoes

Hash Browned Potatoes are crisp and lightly browned.

3 medium potatoes
6 tbls oil
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper

Shred potatoes into a bowl and set aside. Don’t worry if they start to turn color a bit as that will disappear when they are cooking.

Heat the oil a heavy skillet to quite hot over med high flame before dropping about a cup or so of potatoes at a time in the oil. Use a spatula to spread potatoes out over the bottom of the pan if uneven.

The hot oil will want to splatter from the moisture on the potatoes so be careful, but the higher heat will make the sugars of the potato caramelize. The biggest mistake folks make is to put the potatoes in the oil before it is hot enough.

Let it cook about 5 to 8 minutes on one side or until it looks nicely browned and flip over like a large pancake all at once to cook other side. Continue with next portions of potatoes.
