Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 21.2 oz Russet Potatoes
  • 1 1/2 tbsp Bread Crumbs
  • 2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 10 turns Black Pepper, freshly cracked
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 3 tsp Parmesan Cheese , grated
  • Olive Oil

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Potatoes: Wash the potatoes. After peeling, shred the potatoes. Place the shredded potatoes in a bowl of cold water for 10 to 20 minutes to draw out the excess starch.
  • Drain the Potatoes: Drain and rinse the potatoes. Wipe out the bowl and return the potatoes to the bowl. Microwave on high heat for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring after each minute to partially cook the potatoes. Lay them on a paper towel-lined baking sheet and pat them completely dry with more paper towels.
  • Season the Potatoes: Return the potatoes to the bowl and add the breadcrumbs, and salt, along with the pepper, garlic powder, and cheese. Combine until the seasonings are evenly distributed among the potatoes.

  • Make the Hash Browns: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, scoop up balls of the potato mixture and place them into an egg mold or round cookie cutter on the baking sheet. Press down to form patties within the ring. Remove the ring and repeat with the remaining potatoes. Place the baking sheet into the refrigerator and chill for 20 minutes.
  • Cook the Hash Brown: Carefully add the hash browns to the basket in a single layer. Cook the hash browns by following the below setting:
    Cooking Mode: Air Fryer
    Temperature: 355°F (180℃)
    Time: 15 Minutes
  • Serve: Remove the hash browns from the air fryer and transfer to a serving dish. Serve with any sauce you like.
