Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized Russet potatoes
- 1 spray as needed Cooking spray
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Onion powder (optional)
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and grate them using a coarse grater.
Place the grated potatoes into a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze tightly to remove as much excess moisture as possible.
Transfer the squeezed grated potatoes into a mixing bowl and season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder if using.
Spray a large non-stick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
Divide the potato mixture into two equal portions. Place one portion into the skillet and press it down gently with a spatula to form a flat, even layer.
Cook the hash brown for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
Repeat the process with the second portion of potatoes. Add more cooking spray if necessary.
Serve immediately while hot with your favorite low-point sauces or accompaniments.
