The Potato Can Be Grated by Hand Like Cheese or Shredded in an Appropriate Blender. the Onion Can Be Roughly Chopped by Hand or in a Blender but Try to Avoid Large Chunks as Much as Possible as These Will Affect the Flavour and the Way in Which the Hash Browns Hold Together. |

Heat the Oil in a Frying Pan. Note: the Oil Must Be Hot So That the Hash Brown Begins to Cook as Soon as It Hits the Pan. Otherwise It Will Absorb the Oil and the Flavour and Crispness Will Be Affected. |

Take About a 1/4 Cup of Mixture and Drop Carefully Into the Pan, Flattening Immediately With the Back of a Fish Slice (commonly Mistaken For a Spatula, So If You Don't Think You Have a Fish Slice Use What You Think Is Your Spatula). If You're not Sure What a 1/4 Cup Is, Divide the Mixture Into 4 and You're About Right. |

|
Cook Each Side For 2-3 Minutes. Slide the Fish Slice Under Slowly When Intending to Flip It Over Just to Check It Has Been Cooked Long Enough on That Side. If It Hasn't, It Won't Hold Enough to Allow Itself to Be Flipped. |

Hash Browns Keep Well in a Warm (but Off) Oven So If You're Planning Them as Part of a Fry-Up Breakfast I'd Recommend Doing Them First and Keeping Them in a Warm Oven While You Cook Everything Else. |
