Step | Details |
---|---|
1 | Prepare the Potatoes: Wash the potatoes thoroughly and bake them until they are half done, ensuring they remain firm. This typically takes about 10-15 minutes in a preheated oven. |
2 | Shred the Potatoes: Once the potatoes are baked, shred them using a food processor fitted with the shredder blade. If you have two sizes, opt for the larger one for a more rustic texture. Additionally, mince the onions and garlic if you’re using fresh cloves. |
3 | Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded potatoes, minced onions, minced garlic (if using fresh), egg, garlic powder, and a dash of Tabasco sauce. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated. |
4 | Form Pancakes: Take handfuls of the potato mixture and shape them into flat, round pancakes. Ensure they are compact enough to hold their shape while frying. |
5 | Fry the Pancakes: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of oil. Once hot, carefully place the potato pancakes in the skillet, ensuring they have enough space between them. Cook until golden brown on one side, then carefully flip them over to brown the other side. This typically takes 3-4 minutes per side. |
6 | Optional Topping: If desired, top the hash brown potato pancakes with cheese while they’re still warm. Let the cheese melt slightly before serving. |
7 | Serve Warm: Once fully cooked and golden brown on both sides, transfer the hash brown potato pancakes to a serving platter. Serve them warm alongside your favorite breakfast accompaniments. Enjoy! |
