Savory Sweet Potato Hash Browns (Print Version)
Crispy-edged sweet potato patties mixed with onion and seasonings, pan-fried then baked to perfection for the ultimate breakfast side.
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 large sweet potato, peeled (approximately 3½ cups)
02 -
2 tablespoons grated onion
03 -
2 eggs
04 -
1 tablespoon plain flour
05 -
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt (adjust to taste)
06 -
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (use more if required)
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Coarsely grate the sweet potato and place it into a bowl of cold water. Swirl the grated potatoes in the water, then drain. Using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, gently squeeze out excess moisture to ensure the grated sweet potato is dry.
02 -
In a medium bowl, combine the prepared sweet potatoes with grated onion, eggs, flour, and kosher salt. Mix the ingredients until well incorporated, forming a batter for the hash browns.
03 -
Heat a generous amount of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place heaping tablespoons of the potato mixture into the heated oil. Flatten each scoop lightly with a spatula to form even patties. Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on one side until lightly browned, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side.
04 -
Transfer the fried hash browns onto a baking sheet. Place the sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes to ensure thorough cooking and a crispy texture.
05 -
Remove the hash browns from the oven and serve them immediately. For added flavor, enjoy with a dollop of sour cream or your preferred topping.
