Ingredients

  • 3 medium russet potatoes, peeled and shredded
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp. hot paprika
  • ground Himalayan sea salt, to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp. bacon fat
  • chopped chives, for garnish optional

Directions

  • Rinse shredded potatoes under cold water, swishing them to rinse off any excess starch and drain. Repeat until the water gets clear.
  • Place them on a thin, clean dish towel, gather the sides, and squeeze out the excess liquid.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, add bacon fat. When it gets hot, add the shredded potatoes and spread them out. Let them sit for 5 minutes or until a crust is formed before tossing.
  • Keep browning the potatoes to your liking, about 30 to 40 minutes. Serve immediately
