Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized yams (peeled)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 stalks green onion (finely chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
Peel the yams and grate them using a box grater or food processor, then squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated yams with one egg, flour, chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until fully incorporated.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it shimmers.
Scoop about a 1/4 cup of the yam mixture and flatten it into a patty. Carefully place the patty in the hot oil. Repeat with additional portions of the mixture, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook each yam patty for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as necessary to avoid burning.
Once cooked, transfer the patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Repeat the process with the remaining yam mixture until all patties are cooked.
Serve your yam hash browns warm as a side dish or enjoy them with a dollop of sour cream or your favorite dipping sauce.
