SWEET POTATO HASH BROWNS



Sweet Potato Hash Browns image

A riff on Josh Ozersky's famous minimalist hash browns, these are made by sprinkling grated sweet potato over hot butter in a very thin layer, then waiting patiently for the starch to work its magic. Crisp, salty, buttery and addictive, these hash browns are so good, you could probably eat the entire batch in one sitting (or force yourself to be generous and share with a friend). Serve with a fried or over-easy egg for a complete breakfast.

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 large sweet potato (10 to 12 ounces), scrubbed and dried
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Using the large holes of a box grater, grate the sweet potato onto a paper towel. Use the paper towel to gather the sweet potato shreds, then squeeze to wring out excess moisture (there may not be much). Dump into a bowl, add cornstarch and mix to combine.
  • Set your largest nonstick skillet (cast-iron is also fine, if it's all you have, though you can expect a bit more sticking) over medium-high heat and add 1/2 tablespoon butter. Swirl the pan to coat it in butter. When the butter stops foaming, sprinkle shredded sweet potato all over the surface in a thin single layer. (The thinner the layer, the more crisp the hash browns.)
  • Sprinkle all over with salt, then use a spatula, preferably long and thin, to press down so all shreds come in contact with the hot surface. When you see the potato is starting to get really crisp and brown on the bottom, about 3 to 4 minutes, use the spatula to carefully flip small sections over (it's O.K. if it's not perfect). Cook until the other side is deeply brown, 3 to 5 minutes more, flipping sections as needed.
  • Unless your pan is really big, you'll have to cook these in 3 to 4 batches, using 1/2 tablespoon butter for each round. You can keep the cooked hash browns warm in a 300-degree oven as you work.

SWEET POTATO HASH BROWNS



Sweet Potato Hash Browns image

Easy shredded sweet potato hash browns cooked in a skillet in minutes. Better tasting and better for you than the original! Crispy outside, tender inside.

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 medium sweet potatoes (peeled and shredded (about 4 1/2 cups) - see blog post for tips)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (divided)
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon chipotle chili powder (optional but delicious)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • To keep the patties warm between batches, preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine sweet potato, 1 tablespoon oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and chipotle chili powder.
  • Heat a large cast iron or similar heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. You want the pan to be preheated before you add anything to it. Add 1/2 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Once the oil is hot and the butter melted, scoop a slightly heaping 1/2 cupful of the sweet potato mixture and drop it onto the skillet in a tight mound. With the back of a spatula, flatten the sweet potato mound into a hash brown patty (it doesn't need to be a perfect circle! Any bits that poke out will be delightfully crispy). Repeat twice more, so that you have 3 hash brown patties in the skillet.
  • Cook the patties on both sides, flipping them halfway through (again, don't stress if they are not perfect; if they flip in pieces, no big deal. Scoot them back together and keep cooking). Cook the patties until they are nicely browned on both sides and hot and tender in the center, about 6 to 8 minutes total. Transfer the cooked hash browns to a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil, 1 tablespoon butter, and the remaining sweet potato mixture. Enjoy hot.

SWEET POTATO HASH BROWNS WITH GREEN ONION VINAIGRETTE



Sweet Potato Hash Browns with Green Onion Vinaigrette image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup sliced green onions, green part only
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons honey
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup canola oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium Spanish onion, halved and thinly sliced
Pinch sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 large sweet potatoes, cut into 1-inch dice
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • For the vinaigrette: Combine the onions, vinegar, mustard and a few tablespoons of cold water in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the olive oil and continue to blend until emulsified. Add the honey and some salt and pepper and pulse a few more times to combine.
  • For the hash browns: Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and a pinch of sugar and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • While the onions are caramelizing, put potatoes in a medium pot of cold, salted water. Bring the water to a boil and cook until nearly tender but a knife inserted into the centers still meets a little resistance, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain through a colander and then drain on paper towels.
  • Heat the remaining butter and oil on a cast-iron griddle or in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes and cook, pressing firmly with a spatula, until the underside is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the caramelized onions and a drizzle of the green onion vinaigrette and toss to coat. Transfer the hash to a platter and drizzle with the remaining green onion vinaigrette.

SWEET POTATO HASH BROWNS



Sweet Potato Hash Browns image

As with regular potatoes, these hash browns can be served for breakfast with fried or scrambled eggs and toast.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 large sweet potatoes, 2 pounds, cut into 3/4-inch dice
6 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, peeled and cut into 1/3-inch dice
2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add sweet potatoes, and cook until they can be easily pierced with a fork but still offer some resistance, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain, and rinse under cold running water. Refrigerate until completely chilled, about 1 hour.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions, and saute, stirring occasionally, until onions are tender and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer onions to a small bowl, and set aside.
  • Pour remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil into the skillet, and place over medium-high heat. Add potatoes, and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add reserved onions, and cook 2 minutes. Toss in parsley, and adjust the seasoning to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use a grater with large holes. This will create thick, fluffy hash browns that will hold their shape well.
  • Squeeze out excess moisture from the sweet potatoes before cooking. This will help the hash browns to crisp up.
  • Use a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. This will help to prevent the hash browns from sticking and burning.
  • Cook the hash browns in batches if necessary. Do not overcrowd the pan, or the hash browns will not cook evenly.
  • Flip the hash browns only once during cooking. Flipping them too often will break them up and make them mushy.
  • Season the hash browns with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add chopped vegetables, cheese, or meat.
  • Serve the hash browns immediately. They are best when they are hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Sweet potato hash browns are a delicious and versatile breakfast dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them plain or loaded with toppings, sweet potato hash browns are a great way to start your day.
