Ingredients

• 4 medium Russet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Chives (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

Peel the potatoes and grate them using a box grater or a food processor with a grating attachment.

Step 3

Place the grated potatoes in a large bowl filled with cold water. Swish them around to remove excess starch, then drain and repeat once more with fresh water.

Step 4

Transfer the grated potatoes to a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible, ensuring the potatoes are dry for crispy results.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried potatoes, melted butter, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. If desired, mix in the Parmesan for extra flavor.

Step 6

Spread the potato mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing it down slightly to create an even layer. Pat it firmly so it holds its shape while baking.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Then, use a spatula to gently flip sections of the hash browns and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh chives, if desired, and serve hot.
