How to Make McDonald’s Hash Browns
McDonald’s hash browns are a beloved breakfast item that many people enjoy. While you can easily pick them up from your nearest McDonald’s, making them at home can be a fun and rewarding experience. Let’s take a look at how you can recreate these crispy golden hash browns in your own kitchen.
Ingredients:
- 2 medium russet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions:
- Start by peeling the potatoes and then grating them using a box grater or a food processor.
- Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out any excess moisture.
- Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl and add the cornstarch, salt, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix well to combine.
- Heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Scoop the potato mixture using a 1/4 cup measuring cup and gently flatten it into a disk shape.
- Carefully place the potato disk into the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Once cooked, transfer the hash browns to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Serve hot and enjoy your homemade McDonald’s style hash browns!
Tip:
For an extra crispy texture, you can double fry the hash browns. After the initial frying, let them cool slightly, then fry them again for another minute per side.
Now that you have the recipe, you can easily make McDonald’s hash browns at home to impress your family and friends. Enjoy the delicious taste of these crispy treats straight from your own kitchen!
