Hash Browns

Ingredients:

500g waxy potatoes

4 tbsp vegetable oil

2 tbsp butter

salt and pepper

Method:

Cook potatoes in a pan of lightly salted, boiling water for 10 minutes. Drain and let cool.

When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, grate them with a coarse grater and add salt and pepper.

Divide the potato mixture into 8 equal portions of equal size and shape into flattened rectangles with your hands.

Heat the oil and butter in a skillet and cook the hash browns, in batches, over low heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until crisp and golden brown.

Transfer the hash browns to a serving plate and serve immediately.

Tip of the day: While cooking smelly foods, soak a cloth towel and let it dry in the cooking area. It will absorb the smell of cooking and keep the room fresh!
