Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 large Egg whites
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
Instructions
Peel the russet potatoes and grate them using a box grater. Transfer the grated potatoes onto a clean kitchen towel.
Wrap the grated potatoes in the towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This will help the patties crisp up nicely.
In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites until slightly frothy.
Add the grated potatoes to the bowl with the egg whites. Mix in the garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until evenly combined.
Chop the fresh parsley finely and add it to the potato mixture. Stir until well incorporated.
Divide the potato mixture into eight equal portions and shape each portion into a flat patty.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet, ensuring they do not touch each other. You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your skillet.
Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Transfer cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the hash brown patties warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
