Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 medium sweet potatoes (peeled and shredded (about 4 1/2 cups) - see blog post for tips)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (divided)
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon chipotle chili powder (optional but delicious)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • To keep the patties warm between batches, preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine sweet potato, 1 tablespoon oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and chipotle chili powder.
  • Heat a large cast iron or similar heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. You want the pan to be preheated before you add anything to it. Add 1/2 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Once the oil is hot and the butter melted, scoop a slightly heaping 1/2 cupful of the sweet potato mixture and drop it onto the skillet in a tight mound. With the back of a spatula, flatten the sweet potato mound into a hash brown patty (it doesn't need to be a perfect circle! Any bits that poke out will be delightfully crispy). Repeat twice more, so that you have 3 hash brown patties in the skillet.
  • Cook the patties on both sides, flipping them halfway through (again, don't stress if they are not perfect; if they flip in pieces, no big deal. Scoot them back together and keep cooking). Cook the patties until they are nicely browned on both sides and hot and tender in the center, about 6 to 8 minutes total. Transfer the cooked hash browns to a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil, 1 tablespoon butter, and the remaining sweet potato mixture. Enjoy hot.

Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 pound sweet potato (about half a large sweet potato), peeled and grated through the large grates of a box grater
4 Tbsp butter
Salt
Pepper

Steps:

  • Melt the butter: Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a cast iron pan on medium high heat. (If you don't have a cast iron pan, use a thick-bottomed skillet.) Note that you want the heat high enough so that the butter bubbles, but not so high that it browns or burns before you put the sweet potato in the pan.
  • Cook the hash browns: Cook undisturbed until they are nicely browned on one side, about 4 to 5 minutes, then carefully turn them over with a metal spatula to brown on the other side, 4 to 5 minutes more.

SWEET POTATO HASH BROWNS



Sweet Potato Hash Browns image

A riff on Josh Ozersky's famous minimalist hash browns, these are made by sprinkling grated sweet potato over hot butter in a very thin layer, then waiting patiently for the starch to work its magic. Crisp, salty, buttery and addictive, these hash browns are so good, you could probably eat the entire batch in one sitting (or force yourself to be generous and share with a friend). Serve with a fried or over-easy egg for a complete breakfast.

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 large sweet potato (10 to 12 ounces), scrubbed and dried
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Using the large holes of a box grater, grate the sweet potato onto a paper towel. Use the paper towel to gather the sweet potato shreds, then squeeze to wring out excess moisture (there may not be much). Dump into a bowl, add cornstarch and mix to combine.
  • Set your largest nonstick skillet (cast-iron is also fine, if it's all you have, though you can expect a bit more sticking) over medium-high heat and add 1/2 tablespoon butter. Swirl the pan to coat it in butter. When the butter stops foaming, sprinkle shredded sweet potato all over the surface in a thin single layer. (The thinner the layer, the more crisp the hash browns.)
  • Sprinkle all over with salt, then use a spatula, preferably long and thin, to press down so all shreds come in contact with the hot surface. When you see the potato is starting to get really crisp and brown on the bottom, about 3 to 4 minutes, use the spatula to carefully flip small sections over (it's O.K. if it's not perfect). Cook until the other side is deeply brown, 3 to 5 minutes more, flipping sections as needed.
  • Unless your pan is really big, you'll have to cook these in 3 to 4 batches, using 1/2 tablespoon butter for each round. You can keep the cooked hash browns warm in a 300-degree oven as you work.

SWEET POTATO HASH BROWNS



Sweet Potato Hash Browns image

As with regular potatoes, these hash browns can be served for breakfast with fried or scrambled eggs and toast.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 large sweet potatoes, 2 pounds, cut into 3/4-inch dice
6 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, peeled and cut into 1/3-inch dice
2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add sweet potatoes, and cook until they can be easily pierced with a fork but still offer some resistance, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain, and rinse under cold running water. Refrigerate until completely chilled, about 1 hour.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions, and saute, stirring occasionally, until onions are tender and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer onions to a small bowl, and set aside.
  • Pour remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil into the skillet, and place over medium-high heat. Add potatoes, and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add reserved onions, and cook 2 minutes. Toss in parsley, and adjust the seasoning to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

SWEET POTATO HASH BROWNS

I only had two sweet potatoes on hand and wanted to make a side dish for dinner. I made this up on the fly and it was delicious! A different take on sweet potatoes. You can adjust the amounts to make a larger side. This ended up cooking down to only about a cup and a half. Keep a close watch on the dish so that the potatoes do not burn.

Tips:

  • To achieve crispy hash browns, use a combination of grated and shredded sweet potatoes. Grating creates finer pieces that brown easily, while shredding provides larger pieces with a softer texture.
  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or nonstick pan for even cooking and to prevent sticking.
  • Press the sweet potato mixture firmly into the pan to ensure it holds together well during cooking.
  • Cook the hash browns over medium heat and avoid overcrowding the pan. This allows them to cook evenly without steaming.
  • Flip the hash browns only once during cooking to prevent them from breaking apart.
  • Serve the hash browns immediately, topped with your favorite sweet or savory ingredients.

Conclusion:

Sweet potato hash browns are a versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are a healthier alternative to traditional hash browns made with white potatoes and are packed with nutrients. Experiment with different toppings and seasonings to create unique flavor combinations that suit your taste preferences. Whether you prefer a sweet or savory dish, these hash browns are sure to satisfy your cravings. So, grab some sweet potatoes and give this recipe a try - you won't be disappointed!
