Peel the russet potatoes and shred them using a box grater. Place the shredded potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded potatoes, eggs, all-purpose flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and grated onion. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese to the potato mixture and fold it in evenly.
Divide the potato mixture into 6 equal portions. Shape each portion into a compact bundle or patty shape about 3 inches wide and 1 inch thick.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter and oil. Once the butter is melted and the oil is hot, add the potato bundles to the skillet. Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding, if necessary.
Fry the bundles for 5–6 minutes on each side, or until they’re golden brown and crispy on the outside. Adjust the heat as needed to avoid burning.
Once cooked, transfer the hash brown bundles to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the hash brown potato bundles immediately, garnished with fresh herbs or sour cream if desired.
