  1. 1
    Grate the potatoes on a large-holed cheese grater. In a fine-mesh sieve, rinse the grated potato until the water runs clear.
  2. 2
    Drain the potatoes, then place them potato on a clean tea towel. Twist the towel to remove as much moisture from the potatoes as possible
  3. 3
    Spread the grated potato onto a tray and sprinkle with the salt.
  4. 4
    In a large frypan, warm the oil over medium heat until shimmering. Spread the potatoes over the frypan in an even layer and allow a few gaps to help cook the potato. Let them cook undisturbed for 2 minutes. Stir again, and cook for another 2 minutes.
  5. 5
    When the potatoes start to colour, push them together to create your hash browns and press them down. Continue to cook for about 4 to 8 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.
  6. 6
    Transfer the hash browns onto paper towel and let them drain for a minute. Season to taste with additional salt and serve hot.
  7. 7
    Serve with Huon Smoked Salmon and your choice of sides. We recommend fried eggs, tomatoes, mushroom and spinach.
