Brekky hash browns
TOTAL TIME: 30 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
- 2 large Russet potatoes
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
Method:
Scrub, clean and grate the potatoes (you can leave the skin on or peel them).
In a sieve, rinse the grated potato under water until it runs clear.
Drain the potatoes and place them on a tea towel or paper towels and remove as much moisture as possible.
Transfer the potato to a bowl and mix in the salt, garlic and onion powder.
Heat the oil in a large skillet until a piece of grated potato sizzles on contact.
Spread the potato across the skillet in an even layer and press down. Cook for around 2 minutes.
Stir again, press down and let cook for a further 2 minutes. Flip sections and cook until crispy.
Transfer to paper towels to absorb the oil and serve with eggs, avocado and bacon, or eat on their own.

Serve with eggs, avocado and toast, or just by itself.
