Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 1 cup (shredded) Cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 3 (minced) Garlic cloves
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, optional) Chives
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and grate them using a box grater. Place the grated potatoes into a clean kitchen towel and wring out as much moisture as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, and chopped chives (if using). Mix well.
In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the egg, flour, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Pour this mixture into the bowl with the potato mixture and stir until fully combined.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Use enough oil to cover the bottom of the skillet evenly.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of the potato mixture and shape it into a small patty using your hands. Place the patty into the hot skillet and flatten gently with a spatula.
Cook the hash brown patties for 3–4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat if necessary to prevent burning.
Use a spatula to remove the cooked hash browns from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Serve the hash browns warm, garnished with additional chives if desired. Pair with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy on their own!
