Lacy Crisp German Style Hash Browns Recipes

GERMAN-STYLE ROASTED HASH BROWNS HOMEMADE

Steps:

• Peel and slice potatoes into 1/2-inch strips. Place the strips in a bowl of cold water as they are cut to prevent them from getting brown.
• Drain and pat the potato strips dry. Pour oil to a depth of 3/4 inch into a large, heavy cast-iron skillet and heat until close to boiling. Divide potatoes into 3 batches and fry each batch separately; each batch should take about 10 minutes. Remove potatoes with slotted spoon or strainer and drain on paper towels. When potatoes have cooled, cut strips into 1/4-inch dice.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a clean heavy skillet. When the oil is hot and begins to sizzle, add the chopped onions, paprika and salt. Saute over medium-high heat for 6-8 minutes, or until the onions start to soften and brown.
• Melt the butter in a large ovenproof pan or skillet. Add the potatoes and onions, and mix together well. Saute over medium-high heat until browned and then season with salt and pepper. Transfer the pan to the oven and roast 10-15 minutes, until crisp.

RöSTI - GERMAN (OR SWISS) HASH BROWNS & EGGS RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Helpful equipment: Potato ricer (easy way to remove excess moisture) or cheesecloth or tea towel Box grater or food processor with a shredding blade Wash potaotes (I don't peel them, unless you are using Russets) and grate Squeeze out as much moisture as you can (to avoid gummy potatoes). Add grated onion (if using) Add olive oil, pepper and go easy on adding salt (you can always add more). Toss to combine. Heat a skillet, with about 2-3 tsp olive oil on medium heat until it is rippling and just starting to smoke. Add the pat of unsalted butter (for flavor). Evenly distribute the potatoes and allow to cook until golden brown. Press down with a large spatula (I use a bacon press to weight it down). Flip over and continue to cook until golden brown. Total cooking time is approximately 20 minutes. If desired, crack 4 eggs on top and cover. Allow to cook for 3-4 minutes longer and serve. Otherwise, you can cook eggs separately and serve.
