Optional Flavor Boosters
  • 1 medium Shredded Onion Adds a delightful sweetness and depth of flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder A hint of garlicky goodness.
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika For a subtle smokiness and a pop of color.
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs Chopped parsley or chives for a fresh finish.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Air Fryer Hash Browns
  1. Start by peeling and shredding your russet potatoes. Soak the shredded potatoes in cold water for about 10 minutes to remove excess starch.
  2. After soaking, drain the potatoes and thoroughly squeeze out any remaining moisture using clean kitchen towels.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry shredded potatoes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix in optional ingredients if desired.
  4. Set your air fryer to preheat at 375°F (190°C).
  5. Once preheated, spread the potato mixture evenly in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, shaking or flipping halfway through.
  6. When golden brown and crispy, remove from the air fryer and serve hot.
