Crisp Hash Brown Potatoes
I had planned on making a nice breakfast on Valentine's Day but John went down and ate cereal before I had a chance (boo) so I decided to make it today. I wanted to make hash browns to go with the breakfast since that is one of my favorite things to have for breakfast when we go out.
When I was in high school I worked at this dreadful breakfast/lunch place once a week. For some reason I always got stuck shredding the potatoes for the hash browns. I remember their hash browns being awesome so I decided to mimic them the best I could. This recipe is really simple and results in tasty hash browns. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
2 large potatoes, shredded
1 tablespoon of butter, melted
Lawry's Seasoning salt (or regular salt if you don't have Lawry's)
Pepper
Cooking spray
Directions:
1- Coat a skillet with cooking spray and heat until the pan is warm/hot.
2- While the pan is heating press the potatoes between paper towel to remove excess moisture. Mix in the melted butter and seasonings to taste, stir well.
3- Put large spoonfuls of the mixture into the hot pan. I formed them into circles and ended up with about 8 circles.
4- Heat for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until brown and crisp. Using the back of your spatula periodically press the potatoes down to release moisture and help the potatoes crisp.
ooooh!! looks yummy!! :)
