Ingredients
- 2 large Russet potatoes about 1 ¼ pounds, scrubbed
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- ½ teaspoon onion powder optional
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 2 tablespoons butter divided
Instructions
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and set up a steamer basket or colander on top. Place the potatoes in the basket, cover with a lid, and steam for about 8 minutes until they are partially cooked. Let the potatoes cool enough to handle, then cut them in half lengthwise.
- Use a food processor with the shredding disc attachment or a box grater to transform the partially cooked potatoes into hash browns. Season with salt, pepper, and onion powder (if using) and use a spoon to toss together.
- In a large, heavy bottom skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium to medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, spread the shredded potatoes evenly across it, allowing them to cook undisturbed for about 8 minutes until one side becomes golden and crispy. If the potatoes are cooking too quickly, reduce the heat.
- Drizzle the remaining oil and place the remaining butter over the hash browns and, using a large spatula, carefully flip them to cook the other side. Optionally, use the spatula to divide the hash browns into 4 sections for easier flipping. Cook for an additional 7-8 minutes until the other side achieves a similar golden-brown crispiness.

Notes
- Storage: Allow hash browns to cool to room temperature, then place in an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator. Reheat in a skillet for 5-8 minutes to warm them through and re-crisp them. Hash browns will last in the fridge for up to 3 days.

- Freezer: Your best bet is to freeze your partially cooked potatoes after you've shredded them. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and move them to the fridge. After they've frozen, transfer them to a freezer bag or airtight container and keep frozen for up to 3 months. To prepare them, transfer the frozen potato shreds to the refrigerator to thaw overnight, then cook them in your skillet as directed in the recipe.
