- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper

- Shred the potatoes and place in a strainer.

- Add about 1/4 cup of the shredded potatoes to the skillet, use your spatula to flatten the potatoes a bit so they are in a patty form.

- Carefully flip the hash browns. Add the additional one tablespoon of oil if you think you need it.

Notes
I use medium size red potatoes. You can use another variety if you prefer. You can use the potato with or without the peel, it is completely your personal preference.
