👩🏼‍🍳 Chef’s Tips

• The easiest way to shred sweet potatoes is to use a food processor with the shredding blade. If you don’t have a food processor, though, you can shred the potatoes by hand! Use a grater and shred the potatoes over a large bowl. Be careful not to cut yourself!
• Sweet potato hash browns is a two-step process when it comes to the actual cooking. First, you’ll quickly fry them in a pan. Then, you’ll bake all of the fried patties in the oven. This way you get the perfect hash brown texture – crispy outside, but tender (and fully cooked) inside.
• The soft sweet potatoes can burn easily on the stove, so it’s important to make sure your pan isn’t too hot. Also, to get a really gorgeous, crispy crust on the hash browns, you’ll want to remove as much moisture as possible from the shredded sweet potatoes. Just give them a squeeze with paper towels and you’ll be good to go.
