Sunny's Saturday Special Hash Browns
- 1 pound russet potatoes, peeled and grated
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Hungarian paprika
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Using a box grater or a food processor with the shred attachment, shred the potatoes and place them in a colander over a large bowl.
- Fill the bowl with cold water and agitate the shredded potatoes and rinse with water until the water runs clear from the colander.
- Strain the potatoes and pour into a clean kitchen towel, gather the edges and twist the towel around to squeeze the excess water out of the potatoes.
- Do this as hard as possible, changing towels if needed to remove the most moisture.
- Transfer the dried potato shreds to a large bowl.
- Add the garlic powder, onion powder, Hungarian paprika, 2 teaspoons of salt, and a grind or two of pepper.
- Toss with your hands to combine.
- In a large nonstick saute pan on medium heat, add the olive oil and shredded potatoes.
- Spread the potatoes evenly and allow a bottom crust to build before tossing to cook some more.
- Continue to cook while tossing until most of the hash browns are golden, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Pour into a serving plate.
