Ingredients

• 4 medium Russet potatoes
• 1 small Yellow onion
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and grate them using the large holes of a box grater. Transfer the grated potatoes into a large bowl of cold water to prevent browning.

Step 2

Peel and finely grate the onion. Set aside.

Step 3

Drain the potatoes and squeeze out as much water as possible using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth until they are dry. Place the potatoes back into a clean mixing bowl.

Step 4

Add the grated onion, all-purpose flour, egg, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to the bowl. Mix well to combine, ensuring the egg and flour are evenly distributed.

Step 5

Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add the butter and vegetable oil. Allow them to melt and combine.

Step 6

Scoop about 1/4 cup of the potato mixture and gently form it into a patty with your hands. Place the patty into the hot skillet. Repeat with additional patties, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.

Step 7

Cook each patty for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Flip carefully using a spatula.

Step 8

Once cooked, transfer the hash browns to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining potato mixture, adding more oil/butter to the pan as needed.

Step 9

Serve the hash browns hot with your favorite toppings or condiments, such as sour cream, ketchup, or fresh chives.
