They're crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and not overly greasy ... what more could you want? I especially like the flavor of the butter/oil combination rather than only oil. Add onions or jalapenos, if you like; melted cheese on top is always good, too!

4

tablespoons vegetable oil
2

tablespoons butter
salt and pepper

DIRECTIONS

Cook whole potatoes in a large saucepan of salted boiling water for 10 minutes; drain and let cool.
When potatoes are cool enough to handle, grate them with a coarse grater.
In a large non-stick skillet, heat oil and butter together and cook hash browns over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes on each side, or until crisp and well-browned.
Resist the temptation to stir them around; just lift up an edge periodically to check on browning.
Serve immediately.
