DIY Hashbrowns

Have you ever bought a large bag of potatoes and ran out of uses for them? Have you ever left your potatoes lying around too long that the eyes started to grow? Well, I'm going to show you how to make really fast and cheap hash browns as good as the restaurants do so you won't ever waste potatoes again.

Step 4: Throw in shredded potatoes into pan. Spread them out in a single layer. Add 1-2 tablespoons of spread and evenly distribute it. Wash your cheese grater and peeler after this; you do not want them to sit around unless you want to clean up oxidized potato bits.
