Whether you're crafting a healthier breakfast platter or looking for a crunchy, savory bite, this recipe strikes the ideal balance between taste and nutrition!
Peel and grate the potatoes using a box grater or food processor. Transfer the grated potatoes into a bowl of cold water to remove excess starch.
After 5 minutes, drain the potatoes and squeeze out as much moisture as possible using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.
In a large bowl, combine the dried potatoes, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well to evenly coat the potatoes with the seasonings.
Form the potato mixture into patties, about 3 inches wide and half an inch thick. Ensure they are compact to prevent breaking apart during cooking.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook them in batches if necessary.
Cook each side for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Avoid flipping the patties too soon to ensure they maintain their shape.
Once cooked, transfer the patties to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the crispy hashbrown patties warm as a delicious low sodium breakfast option or as a side to your favorite dishes.
