Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes (or potato of your choice)

Instructions
Peel and grate your fresh, raw, russet potatoes and place the grated potatoes in a medium-sized mixing bowl filled halfway with cold water. Once all of the potatoes are grated, squeeze the excess liquid and starch from the grated potatoes and place them onto paper towels. Continue until you have squeezed the water and starch from all of your grated potatoes.
Pat the grated potatoes dry before frying them.
Preheat a large frying pan or skillet with the olive oil to medium to medium-high heat. The oil should begin to shimmer when heated fully. Portion hash browns into serving size patties (if desired) or place into an oiled, heated frying pan. Add the salt, pepper, and dried chives for seasoning.
Cover and cook for 5 minutes.
Remove the lid and flip hash browns over. They should be nicely cooked and golden brown. Top with the optional cheese, if desired, and cook uncovered for approximately 5-7minutes. Your potatoes should be nice and crispy.
Equipment You May Need
Notes
- When making hash browns from scratch, rinse and squeeze the water and starch from your shredded potatoes. By removing the starch you will end up with cafe-style crispy hash brown potatoes!
- Be sure to allow the oil to get hot! Don't add the potatoes before the oil is fully heated, as otherwise, they will just absorb the cooking oil.
- Cover and let the spuds cook, undisturbed, for 5 minutes.
- Split the hash browns (if in a single layer and not patties) into manageable sizes for flipping.
