Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 cup peeled, julienned russet potatoes
- Salt
- 2 tablespoons diced onions
- 1 slice American cheese
Directions
Heat the oil on a large, flat cast iron griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Immediately "scatter" the potatoes over the oil. Season with salt, to taste. "Scatter" over the onions and cook, without stirring, until the outermost edges have started to brown, about 2 1/2 minutes. Flip the hash browns with a spatula, and place the cheese on top. Let the cheese melt, about 30 seconds.
Transfer the hash browns to a plate and serve immediately.

I grew up eating waffle house hash browns and I was glad to see this recipe to remind me how to make them. To the reviewers who weren't able to flip them, it is challenging sometimes, but it works if you divide the pile in two as shown in the picture. They should include this step in the recipe. Also, it's important to make sure your pan or skillet is large enough so the hash browns aren't piled too thick. If they're too thick they fall apart easily and won't get done in the middle. I like to include little chunks of cooked ham which makes them "scattered, smothered, covered, and chunked!"
