Ingredients
... 1 egg, beaten
1/2 tbsp flour ( recipe dun call for it but i added)
4 medium potatoes, peeled
1 medium onion
salt and pepper.....i also added a bit of garlic powder for extra flavour
vegetable oil for frying
Preparation method
1.Coarsely grate the potatoes or u can finely chop it very small and onion into a clean tea towel and then squeeze out the excess liquid by twisting the towel.
Place the mix in a large bowl.
2.Add the egg, flour,a good couple of pinches of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix the ingredients well.Mix thoroughly to ensure the egg and seasoning is evenly distributed.
You do not want the grated potatoes to be soaked or covered in eggs, you want just a slightly sticky consistency.
It is a good idea to whisk the egg first in a separate bowl and add the egg gradually stirring thoroughly to make sure too much egg is not added.
(You need to salt the mix well otherwise the hash browns can be quite bland).
Take some of the hash brown mixture and shape into a thin patty.
If you shape the hash browns too thick they will not cook correctly.
3.Heat a good glug of oil in a heavy based frying pan and when the oil is hot (but not smoking), add patties about . Flip over once browned and crispy - about 3 to 4 minutes each side.
4.Serve hot as a breakfast or supper side dish.
