Hash Browns
It's time to throw away the frozen Hash Browns! I've cracked these and am sharing the very easy and worth the effort recipe. And what better timing with Easter around the corner as they would make a great addition to a brunch.

Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes
- 1 Egg lightly beaten
- 2 Tablespoons flour
- 1 Teaspoon salt
- 1/2 Teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 Teaspoon paprika
- Butter for frying
Instructions
- Peel and wash potatoes. Grate the potatoes with the larger holes of your grater. Put the grated potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and leave them there for about 20 to 30 minutes. Drain and rinse potatoes.
- Lay the potatoes out on a clean tea towel and pat dry or squeeze to get out as much of the water as you can. Put the potatoes back in the colander and shake them around. They should easily separate and not be clumped together.
- In a large mixing bowl add the potatoes, beaten egg, flour, salt, pepper and paprika. Mix well.
- Melt butter in a large skillet set over medium heat. Drop the batter by mounds and gently flatten out with a spoon. Fry for about 3-5 minutes then flip them over. Fry other side for the same amount of time or until golden and crispy. Repeat for all the batter. Serve immediately when cooked. Can be reheated in the oven.
