Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Potatoes for Maximum Crispiness
  1. Shred the potatoes using a box grater or food processor. Immediately place them in a bowl of cold water to remove excess starch.

  2. Let sit for 5 minutes, then drain and place the shredded potatoes in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Squeeze thoroughly to remove all moisture.

  3. Transfer to a dry bowl and mix in grated onion, salt, pepper, and any optional spices.

2. Cook the Bacon to Crispy Perfection
  1. Place bacon strips in a cold, dry skillet.

  2. Turn heat to medium and cook, flipping occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 8–10 minutes.

  3. Remove and drain on paper towels. Reserve 1–2 tablespoons of the bacon grease for the hash browns.

3. Fry the Hash Browns Until Golden and Crunchy
  1. In a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet, heat the bacon grease and butter over medium-high heat.

  2. Add the potato mixture, spreading it out evenly into a thin layer.

  3. Let cook undisturbed for 5–7 minutes until the bottom is deeply golden.

  4. Flip carefully in sections (or slide onto a plate and flip the entire disc back into the pan).

  5. Cook the other side for 4–5 more minutes until equally crispy. Remove and keep warm.

4. Cook the Eggs to Your Liking
  1. In the same skillet (or a clean nonstick pan), add a small amount of butter or oil.

  2. Crack in the eggs and cook sunny-side-up or over-easy, depending on preference.

  3. Season with salt and pepper. The runnier the yolk, the better it blends with the hash browns.

5. Assemble the Ultimate Breakfast Plate
  1. Place a generous portion of crispy hash browns onto a plate.

  2. Top with one or two eggs, being careful not to break the yolks.

  3. Crumble or layer crispy bacon over the eggs.

  4. Garnish with chopped chives, hot sauce, or a sprinkle of cheddar cheese if desired.
