Ingredients
- 2 sweet potato peeled and grated
- 1 brown onion peeled and diced
- 1 tbsp plain flour
- 1 pinch ground smoked paprika or pepper
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- sea salt and ground black pepper to season
To serve
- caramelised onion
- baby spinach leaves steamed
- fresh chives
Method
- Place the grated sweet potato in a large colander and give it a good soak to get the starch out of it.
- Drain out any excess moisture using a cloth so the sweet potato is very dry. Too much water in the mixture will make the hash browns soggy.
- Transfer to a large bowl and add the onion, flour, salt and pepper and paprika. Mix well and add more flour if required.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Scoop heaped tablespoons of the mixture in the pan and gently flatten with a spatula.
- Cook the hash browns until golden and crispy, about 4-5 minutes on each side. Repeat until all the mixture is used up.
- Serve hash browns with extra caramelised onions, chopped chives and steamed baby spinach.
