MAN HASH BROWNS

Categories     side-dish

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 ounces Idaho or Russet potatoes, scrubbed, rinsed but not peeled
Pinch kosher salt
1 tablespoon bacon fat

Steps:

  • Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium low heat for 5 minutes.
  • While the pan is heating, grate the potato on the largest hole of a box grater. Squeeze the grated potatoes in a tea towel to remove excess moisture.
  • Add the fat to the pan and scatter evenly with the potatoes. Sprinkle with salt and cook for 5 minutes without disturbing. Decrease the heat to low, flip the potatoes, and cook for another 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For crispier hash browns, use a large skillet and spread the potatoes out in a single layer.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan, or the hash browns will steam instead of fry.
  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet for the best results.
  • If you don't have a cast iron skillet, use a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  • Be patient and don't stir the hash browns too often. Let them cook undisturbed for a few minutes at a time, then gently flip them over.
  • Season the hash browns with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, or your favorite seasonings.
  • Serve the hash browns hot with your favorite toppings, such as eggs, cheese, or salsa.

Conclusion:

Hungry Man's Hash Browns are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. With just a few simple ingredients, you can have a hearty and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
