Looks delicious. I'm in the habit of cooking hash browns in half butter/half oil and they come out SO delicious. Great instructions

[@rajespereira8778]

Thank you Laura .Using the potato ricer is wonderful.I'am old and puting the grated potato in a kitchen towel and squeezing hurts my hands !! Thank you for lovely things you cook.I enjoy watching you.

[@momon8738]

THANKS!! I am a father of 6, and these hashbrowns were a hit! Huge Sunday breakfasts are my thing, and I've been cooking store bought hashbrowns because I couldn't get mine crispy. These are better than I had hoped! And I LOVE the individual serving idea! WAY cheaper than buying them at the store too! thanks again!

Amazing! I'm an 11 year old that loves to cook, and I love your videos Laura! I made this by myself for my parents as a surprise, and it was DELICIOUS! My parents loved it, too! I halved the recipe and it made one for each person in my family c: The first hash brown I made- Forgot to add salt ;p Slightly burned, but was still delicious. Second hash brown- AMAZING! It was perfect! ;D Third hash brown- Same as the second one Thank you Laura, I will try this recipe again!

That potato ricer is a godsend. Followed the recipe step by step and turned out amazing. You are the best!!!!!!!

those get a very nice butter taste if you use Clarified butter, and you can get them hotter without fearing to burn the oil.

[@adventure002006]

Great seeing you again. Its been years since I have seen one of your videos. Love your cooking skills. You are exceptionally bright, beautiful and have such a lively personality.

[@latina7292]

I've never understood why restaurants served shredded cooked potatoes with no CRISP and called them hash browns!😂 it should crunch in my mouth.

[@David8024667]

+latina7292 Exactly!!! I was thinking the same thing when I bought some hash browns from McDonald's a few days ago. They were NOT crispy at all. It was basically mush. And, usually, they are crispy there. But, yeah, I was really upset about that whole thing and should have taken them back to Mickey D's and asked for some new ones (ones that WERE actually crispy).

[@David8024667]

***** Sorry you got sick. That's crazy!!!

[@HowToMakeDinner]

I call those "Hash Whites"

[@donnaflaherty9660]

They don't know how to cook.

latina7292 that’s because this woman just made potato pancakes not hash browns....sorry to break it to you

[@strmman]

love the emphasis you put on the basics, you are a real teacher, thanks.

[@kylaglascock4504]

Laura please go on chopped! Please apply you are so Amazing at cooking I think you could be the next chopped champion!

[@SallyGreenaway]

I just tried this with 50% rinsed grated potatoes and 50% unwashed (but squeezed to remove excess moisture) grated potatoes. I also cooked them in olive oil but with a knob of butter. DELICIOUS. Crunchiness plus lots of potato flavour. I left the skins on the potatoes too. Sooooo good.

[@georgethompson3763]

Did you add flour?

[@letmeshowumypkmn]

I remember I once tried to make hash browns without drying them out. *NEVER AGAIN*

[@reginagd20]

+Beatie G I just made some without drying out the potatoes. Not good thats why I'm here. But I don't think I would add flour to mine.

[@bethy-lou3307]

reginagd20 You have to squeeze all the water out of the potato whether you rinse it or not. I don't use egg whites nor flour. They bind when the first side is golden brown and crispy. Don't be shy about ingredients. They're your hash browns add whatever you like.

[@nowsaturate1]

Just followed this recipe, it worked so well. Saturday breakfast was a success.

[@sdphotography4733]

there's nothing like hash browns with some ketchup, a dash of hot sauce, all in between a bite of egg and bacon.

[@garsandguns6078]

thank you laura your the best !!

[@194919671982]

I have been making hash browns my entire life and more than likely had a problem with them sticking to the pan. I love hash browns so much I just dealt with cleaning the pan. I saw how important washing them first is here and a couple other videos and I'm glad to have this problem solved, just wish I had more sense to do it 40 years ago. They not only get crispy because you get rid of the starch but THEY DON'T STICK to the pan. I wash them multiple times until the water is clear and dry with a towel. Thanks.

[@sayhoman]

Man.. Your husband is such a lucky man. I sure would love to kickstart the day off with awesome breakfast that you make.

I have tried so many different recipes for hash browns with poor results, but these look amazing! Can't wait to make these! Thanks Laura! I love how you explain the reasons you use certain techniques, very educational.

[@LauraintheKitchen]

@Bellezassss I create and test my own recipes. Depending ion what I want to make I get ideas from childhood favorites and audience requests.

[@patricknester435]

I do have a question do these hash browns before you cook them fries good because I love hash browns every morning but to have to make him like that would take quite a bit of time out of my day when I get up but it's freezing them before you cook them or freeze them after you cook them. I know a lot about cooking but if you don't know ask PS I love your recipe and I love seeing every once in a while running across to you keep up the good work hope to hear reply happy New Year 2020

[@chirrkut82]

This recipe didn’t work at all unfortunately! Even if the edges are crispy, potatoes were soggy in the middle! Tried it two times!!! may be you need to re-evaluate your recipe, Ms. Laura!!!!

[@madisonridenour2347]

This looks amazing, I like having potato cakes because they are a little smoother but I can do ether way. The potato cakes are just make with cold mashed potatoes, make me into patties and put flour on them. They are the BOMB when you get them super crispy and then have the soft potatoes in the middle!!!

[@sarahsays7420]

This recipe is amazing. I just used a kitchen towel as she suggested, and it worked perfectly. Does anyone know why you only use the egg white and not the whole egg? I've made it both ways, and it seems to turn out the same with the yolk as it does without.

[@BlueJazzBoyNZ]

Those Hash browns do look and sound like the real real. But for myself. I had a breakfast in New Zealand 20 years ago at a place called the Kauri Bar. And they served a Hash Brown... that still haunts me.... par boiled russet potato's, mashed with onion and butter. Possible binder. never net the cook. and then fried till crispy, on each side. So light brown crisp on each side and creamy potato onion goodness inside but not fully blended, still with a little bite. Regards A Picky Guy

Two words: Written Recipe... Seriously everyone's complaining but you can just read the recipe...

[@alwaysdisputin9930]

Reading the recipe won't help encourage her to be more concise. This whole video can be summed up as: grate potato + shallot; dry with potato ricer; add 1 egg white & season; fry for 6 min per side in shallow oil. It shouldn't take 8 min.

[@amandalea91]

These look like my mom's Jamaican salt fish fritters.. The day after my dad makes his salt fish and dumplings recipe (which is just tomatoes, onions, salted cod, scallions, one red pepper all finely chopped with a little salt, pepper, and thyme) my mom takes the left overs with a about a cup and a half and flour and a small amount of water, all mixed together. The concept for cooking is the exact same, but it tastes heavenly! :)
