Ingredients
- 1 medium Russet potato
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Peel the potato and grate it using the large holes of a box grater.
Step 2
Place the grated potato in a clean kitchen towel or paper towel, and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine the grated potato with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well to evenly distribute the seasoning.
Step 4
Heat a small nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the butter and olive oil. Allow the butter to melt completely and coat the pan.
Step 5
Spread the seasoned grated potato in an even layer in the skillet, pressing down gently with a spatula to form a compact round shape.
Step 6
Cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
Step 7
Carefully flip the hash brown over and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top.
Step 8
Cook for another 3-4 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt and the other side to crisp up.
Step 9
Remove the cheesy hash brown from the skillet and serve hot. Enjoy immediately!
