Hash browns are a classic breakfast dish made from grated or finely chopped potatoes that are seasoned and pan-fried until golden and crispy. Originating from North American cuisine, they have become a staple in breakfasts across the world, often served alongside eggs, bacon, or toast. Traditionally, only potatoes and oil are used, though some versions may include onions or spices to enhance flavor. Hash browns provide a source of carbohydrates for energy, and potatoes themselves contain fiber, vitamin C, and potassium. However, they are typically cooked in oil or butter, which can increase calorie and fat content, making moderation key for a balanced diet. For a healthier preparation, hash browns can be baked or cooked with minimal oil. Their simplicity and satisfying crunch make them a beloved comfort food enjoyed in homes and restaurants alike.
