- 30 ounce bag of frozen shredded hash brown potatoes
- ⅔ cup oil
- 2 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Preheat oven to 400ºF. Let it sit at 400ºF for at least 10 minutes. While it is heating, spread potatoes on a sheet pan.
Put the frozen potatoes onto the sheet pan. Add the oil, salt, and pepper to the potatoes and mix well.
Spread the potatoes back out into a single layer (this part really matters for crispiness). Bake at 400°F for 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.
After the 40 minutes and four stirs, increase the oven temperature to 450°F for a final 10 minutes. Each time you stir, make sure to spread the potatoes back into a thin, even layer.
Tips & Tricks
- Use really good salt and oil for the best flavor.
- Spread them out in as thin a layer as possible each time you stir them. The extra effort will help develop the crispiness you are looking for.
- Be sure the oven is really hot before putting in the potatoes.
