Instructions
- Begin by placing the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out any excess moisture to ensure crispy hashbrowns.
- In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes, chopped onion, salt, and pepper. Mix well to evenly distribute the seasonings.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add half of the potato mixture to the skillet.
- Press down the mixture with a spatula to form a flat layer. Cook for 8-10 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
- Carefully flip the hash brown patty and cook for an additional 8-10 minutes until the other side is also golden brown and crispy.
- Transfer the cooked hash brown patty to a plate and keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining potato mixture.
- In the same skillet, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook to your desired doneness, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- To serve, place a hash brown patty on each plate, top with a cooked egg, and sprinkle generously with shredded cheddar cheese and chopped green onions.
- Serve hot and enjoy your delicious breakfast!
Tips
- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika or garlic powder to the potato mixture.
- You can also customize the toppings with avocado slices, salsa, or hot sauce for a spicy kick.
