Ingredients
produce
- ✓2 russet potatoes (peeled and shredded)
dairy
- ✓2 teaspoons unsalted butter
pantry staple
- ✓1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- ✓3/4 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
Instructions
- Preheat waffle iron. If it has temperature controls, set it to medium.
- Squeeze shredded potato with a towel until it’s as dry as possible.
- In a mixing bowl, combine shredded potato, salt, and pepper.
- Using a silicone brush or paper towel, carefully grease both sides of waffle iron with butter.
- Pile shredded potatoes into waffle iron, over-stuffing it a bit, and close lid. Cook for 2 minutes, then press down on lid to further compress potatoes.
- Continue cooking potatoes for 5 minutes longer, then begin checking them: They are ready when potatoes are golden brown all over, about 1 to 2 minutes longer.
- Serve hot with eggs or any other breakfast foods.
My notes
The cooking time will depend on how finely your potatoes are shredded and the temperature of your waffle iron.
