I don’t get how something so simple can taste so good. I went to America about 6 months ago and most of my breakfasts were hash brown and omelette, I loved it.
Don'tHateMe CauseYou'reWrong same? No. Good? Maybe. There is always a difference in flavor when you use other stuff. Don’t try to convert people to vegan stuff by telling them “it taste the same”. Most people who like meat and animal products will definitely be able to tell a difference and that will turn them off more times than not. It’s okay for something to taste different as long as it’s good. You have to be honest and not be that salesperson who will say anything to get people to buy into things. Now if it just plain out taste bad, it’s a lost cause lol
It's the butter, the French have known this secret for a long time, butter isn't actually as bad as people think as long is it's real butter and not processesed
I too thank you sir!!!!! I am a 72 yr old great grandmother and until I found your video have never been able to make hash browns correctly....FINALLY!!! I am a SUCCESS....and it's all because of you!!!! Along with Tekking101, I was not using the correct amount of oil and butter! Plus, I did not rinse them at all! THANKS FOR SHOWING US ALL!!!!!!!
To be fair to yourself, potatoes have no business being so damn complicated to cook perfectly! I make them all the time and occasionally, you just get a crappy potato 🤷🏽♂️ The starch levels, hydration, and internal consistency vary from potato to potato so trying the same thing every time doesn’t even always make the perfect hash brown, and then I get pissed off and throw them out the window so kudos to you for nailing it
Well I feel better now, I’ve been miserably failing at hahaha my entire life and just thought that for some incredibly insane reason I can roast my own homey coffee bake like a rockstar and so-so cook but the two most simple things to make hashbrowns and not burned bacon is an absolute epic failure (which is coincidentally also how I came to know I stress out my next door neighbors (no joke the fire department) with each attempt!!!!! It’s so embarrassing!!!! Although….. the uniformed firefighter….. nope nope a lady isn’t supposed to air such things publicly lol…
I just cooked breakfast for me and my wife to include preparing hash browns your way. The hash browns were a hit! And now my wife thinks I am a hit, thanks to you! God bless you my friend for sharing!
Um, if it took that for her to think you're a hit, something else needs addressing in the relationship. Still, glad this recipe helped in some way - just beware, food doesn't fix everything!
I’ve been making hash brown for awhile and I did NOT know the secret was making sure to deplete the water out of the potatoes both before cooking and while cooking, you covered all the troubled areas I’ve been making in the past. THANK YOU
Bro, I am a 17 years old Moroccan girl that never tasted hash brown or even heard of it until I saw a short video about the American breakfast a while ago and I was like "I WANT THIS" and I found your video thank u so much! I will try it tomorrow and say my results since its 3 am now lol
In the restaurant I work in, they use boiled potatoes for quick cooking. They do not squeeze any water out. They do not cut into water. They are shredded in several large containers the day before. Thrown on the grill atop a huge spoon of bacon grease. They are fabulous!!!
Sounds worth trying also, do they refrigerate the whole boiled potatoes after cooking and do they keep the shredded potatoes in fridge until they are cooked? Thanks! (:
Grating them into water worked wonders. I am amazed at the difference. I simply drained and rinsed the shredded potato in a strainer, pressed out the water, dumped it into the hot skillet, and they turned out perfectly. No towels needed.
YES! Your sir are my savior. I can't tell you how many times I've tried to make these the same way as in a diner and just failed every time. I honestly just wasn't using enough oil and butter and they would constantly stick to the pan and just end up burnt. Thanks so much ! Subscribed.
I was just watching one of your videos. I know this comment is old, but I forget that being a youtuber does not prevent you from just watching random youtube videos yourself, or liking hash-browns. Hope you got some great hashbrowns.
Grate in water, drain, dry & fry. Thank you for the technique that makes all the difference for perfect hash browns. Adding grilled onions to mine with a side of salsa verde. Yum!
+Marina Boyce gosh I didn't know there were replies to my comment! I would fry the onions in the oil first then remove them before adding the potatoes and add them back in after flipping the potatoes over on the second side.
WOW looks so delicious! I have failed countless of times with these but when the times I have successfully made some it is one of the most delicious things in food. And ingredients-wise it can't be more simple. I mean for breakfast bacon, hash brown and scrambled egg or eggs in any cooked form maybe besides boiled is just heaven. And this with basically only THREE ingredients, can it be more simple and cheap but still makes you full and start your day in a more perfect way. Often times I find the easiest dishes done right to be the most delicious.
These are absolutely fabulous!! Being tired of countless attempts at hash downs, we simply went to You Tube. We just finished eating PERFECT HASHBROWNS! And.... my husband made them! It’s actually easy because you have control over your potatoes.....they stay white! Each step creates the perfect outcome. Thank you.....thank you.....thank you!
I have never made hash browns before. I did exactly what you said and they came out PERFECT!! Everyone in the family loves them! Thank you for this video!!
i grate the potato and throw in the pan. waallaaa. cover it so the inside is cooked. use a non stick pan with tad of oil. If you want it fast and homemade, easy hash browns, with less fat.
if you add a small spoon of white flower to the mixture before cooking, they stick even better. I chop some fresh onions into my mixture. Add salt last, it speeds up oxidization.
I've done the rinsing before, but now I see mine failed because I didn't dry them, fluff them and didn't use enough oil. Ready to try this again! Clear, concise, no-nonsense, professional tutorial, thank you!
Very helpful. No added starch or egg, etc.. Thanks for this. It's how I recall them as a kid. I'm learning to cook with my SS pans and burner settings. This is a great recipe to learn that kind of thing. Cheers.
Ok im trying this, when i finish i’ll let you know how’d it go. Edit: it’s delicious, i totally recommend. Its the perfection of hashbrowns, and if you think its too much to add oil and butter together, its not. Its the perfect combo for it to not stick and to flip it easily. I recommend using a bigger pan than the potatoes because it won’t fall out of the pan when you flip it.
Just set up my Blackstone 28, seasoned and ready to go. I've been watching a plethora of how to do hash browns and so here I am. Easy to understand. Thanks. 3 thumbs up. 👍👍👍
I have a slightly different method. During the fluffing process, I season with s&p, paprika (for color), clove of garlic and 2-3 tbsp of dried parsley. I use only butter (1.5 tbsp and then another 1/2 tbsp aroubd the outside after I flip) and fry 8 mins per side, uncovered to evap moisture. Serve with 2 eggs over easy on top, so when you break the yolk, it runs all over the potatoes. But I like your method because it cuts out alot of frying time.
I'm not even going to pretend these are anywhere near healthy, but man they are sooooo good. My wife has me make these more than we should. :) Thank you for this video!!!
I knew about rinsing to get rid of the starch and then usually just squeezed them really good to get the water out. Never thought to then dry them further, nor to cover them while frying. Thanks for the tips!
Finally the secrets revealed!!! I tried to make this and couldn't figure out how to get the hashbrowns that nice golden color. Now I know, so going to try! Thanks for the tip!!!! Great video!!!!
My wife loves hash browns and I wanted to make them golden and crispy but like most failed. I watched and learned from your video. They came out perfectly. Thank you very much!😊

Can't wait for my mothers day breakfast I get to cook for my father in law who is 83 and loves coming over for breakfast on Sunday's! Also if people will look at the additives and preservatives in store-bought even so-called fresh and frozen hash browns you might think twice about doing this fresh idea thanks again!
I have a small rechargeable fan that I got on Amazon and it works great for drying the shredded potatoes. I arrange it so it's a few inches away from the bowl of potatoes and just move them around every few minutes. They're dry as a Bone when they go in the pan of oil & butter. Your eggs look fantastic. Not dry or overdone. Perfect Bacon and two slices of toast with jam and that is a real breakfast. Thanks for the tips on time and temp.
Nailed it...(if only I could upload the picture of the gray pile of mush in my pan😂. Not your fault. I watched your video AFTER I tried on my own. Thanks for showing me the light!
"You just wanna let it do it's thing" Subscribed, hit the bell. Those look so tasty! Thank you for explaining everything so simply, I can't wait to try this!
I just did this. Amazing! The hash browns were perfectly golden brown and light. We were all shocked and pleased by their unreal lightness, like potato feathers. Do this recipe!
I just tried this method and it was totally worth it! Mine never came out as crisp before, but I always just shredded the potatoes and friend shortly after. The water and towel method really made them crisp!
Kevin Ashby one tip. After grating your potatoe and rinsing 4 times put on paper towels multiple times and press all the water out of them . Makes a huge difference.
Man I'm so glad I found this video. I've been trying to make hashbrowns with potatoes at home and have failed everytime. I've even tried the gross bagged hashbrowns at the store (which are full of garbage ingredients) and failed with those as well as they never cook right even following the directions to the "T". I use you rice cooking method everytime I cook rice and it always turns out Excellent! Thanks for these videos
Just made this (scrambled eggs and bacon included) for breakfast and it was great thanks for the recipe it’s a simple one but without this I may not have figured out things like draining the starch, what temperature etc so I very much appreciate this even if it’s a few years late lol.
nah the breakfast of kings is an omelette with lots of cheese so e sausages some bacon some biscuits toast and a glass of milk and a cup of coffee this is my daily breakfast not even kidding
Just tried this technique...amazing. I use a food processor which makes them longer and a little stringy and put water in the bottom of food processor bowl. Used a mixture of avocado oil and butter. Season with salt and pepper. Absolute hash brown perfection.
Currently almost 1am me: decides I’m hungry also me: watches this video bc I don’t know how to make hash browns also also me: goes into kitchen to make hash browns. Sees that there are no potatoes Is mad bc I am hungry.
Wow!! Saturday morning breakfast! Coffee pancakes and these hash browns!! Made my day! Thanks for the recipe. I wish I could share a picture how it turned out :)
Thanks for this, I just tried making this for breakfast like...5 minutes ago..I had some hiccups grating the potato since I was trying so hard to not cut my hand but it came out alright for how small I made it..just a little seasoned salt and some fresh ground black pepper and this is 100 times more tasty than the local waffle house..maybe it's cause I made it myself? I notice that when you make something like this yourself that you've had at diners or other eating joints all the way to fancy sit down restaurants it seems to taste much better than when you ate it there.
Excellent recipe! Never made hash browns from scratch and these came out perfect! Not sure why the dislikes- must have been too good for those people to handle
After watching the video, I agree with you suggestion of a salad spinner a) you're not wasting water from running water to wash out the starch b) no extra laundry from using the tea towel or paper towel to get the potatoes dry 👍
Well, they skip the fresh potato part. And they skip the thawing part. And they skip the drying part. And they multiply the butter by about 5. As mentioned, just enjoy it and don't look in the kitchen.
Thank you so much for your tutorial. I’ve been in the kitchen since the third grade. Today I learned from you what my hash browns were lacking. I new that the starch had to be removed, but I did not know the drying part. Also, I needed to be more generous with the oil & butter. Sir, I really, really love your technique because I followed you every step and my kid’s hash browns turned out to be fantastic. You made my day! Blessings to you and your loved ones! Thank you!💕🙌🏼👏🏻😍
I made these today, they were good thank you☺️ I was a little impatient so I didn't let the pan heat up at the way so they weren't as dark as yours😅 but they were still delicious 😋 I didn't have butter so I used alot of oil, still worked!! Also could be one of the reasons why it wasn't as golden brown as yours too
My father was a cook for many years and he made hashbrowns from leftover baked potatoes from the previous day. Put them in the frig overnight, peel and grate them and use clarified butter drizzled right through them while on the flattop. Much easier.
Great video! 1 question -- you said you can use the frozen/bagged hashbrowns from a supermarket. BUT, do you still have to go through the "de-starching" process (with the water rinsing) and then drying them, or are they ready to use as is? Thanks!
panhead1219 the skins are covered with dirt and bacteria. Even after rinsing, some will remain. Furthermore, the skin will affect the mouthfeel, and the starch will affect the taste as well as mouthfeel. Not removing the skin and destarching the potato hence makes the hashbrowns unpleasant to eat.
This recipe takes probably 45+ minutes to achieve results I get in 10. Wash the skins, don't bother peeling. Ignore the water steps completely. You don't have to worry about your potatoes oxidizing if you work quickly, and you don't have to worry about them sticking if you use enough oil while cooking. Finally, use a potato ricer to squeeze out the water out instead of hand squeezing and towel drying. The potatoes are drier via the ricer and a whole potato takes two squeezes.. maybe 20 seconds total... this method takes probably 20 minutes just for the squeezing and toweling.. plus another recommended 10 minutes to air dry them after. I could make breakfast, eat, and clean the kitchen before this dude has a pan heating up on the stove.
MANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN, where have you been all my life of lousy hash browns. What a GREAT Lesson I have just learned, and it was sooooooooo simple. Thanks Crouton.
@Carlos Spiceywhiener idk if there is a reason for your hate of onions besides preference. But I was just like you who hates most veggies. However as I've been learning to cook I've been forcing myself to eat more onions in my food and after doing that, I've actually gotten used to onions and even like it a bit. Never knew onions tasted sweet. I suggest for many foods you don't like, to try to eat them a good couple times. You may end up getting used to it and even liking some.
Yuli Zhng whoa LL Cool J told me in Deep Blue Sea to whip the eggs and make them nice and bubbly right before they get cooked. He may be a rapper and actor, but that is the best way to cook eggs.
Keep trying on the omelette I got it on my third one. I get my pan hot enough that my egg mix sizzles when it goes in. Scrape everything towards the center and swirl the pan. Fold the egg horizontally and flip after about 30 sec

I arrange it so it's a few inches away from the bowl of potatoes and just move them around every few minutes. They're dry as a Bone when they go in the pan of oil & butter. Your eggs look fantastic. Not dry or overdone. Perfect Bacon and two slices of toast with jam and that is a real breakfast. Thanks for the tips on time and temp.
Nailed it...(if only I could upload the picture of the gray pile of mush in my pan😂. Not your fault. I watched your video AFTER I tried on my own. Thanks for showing me the light!
Same thing happened to me ☹️😩

You forgot the 1st rule of cooking in a frying pan. Make sure it is hot before putting in the ingredients.

Those look so tasty! Thank you for explaining everything so simply, I can't wait to try this!
I just did this. Amazing! The hash browns were perfectly golden brown and light. We were all shocked and pleased by their unreal lightness, like potato feathers. Do this recipe!
I've been using this method for a year and it works great on frozen and dry boxed hash browns. My quick tip: use a plate to flip them 😉
Do you rinse those to defrost and remove coating?
I thought I made good hash browns but you just upped my game! Thank you💙
I just tried this method and it was totally worth it! Mine never came out as crisp before, but I always just shredded the potatoes and friend shortly after. The water and towel method really made them crisp!
Just made them for breakfast and they were a hit! Nice and crispy 👌🏻
That looks fantastic. I make them goo, but I want to get the crispier without burning. Now I know how.. thanks for sharing.
Kevin Ashby one tip. After grating your potatoe and rinsing 4 times put on paper towels multiple times and press all the water out of them . Makes a huge difference.
Man I'm so glad I found this video. I've been trying to make hashbrowns with potatoes at home and have failed everytime.
I've even tried the gross bagged hashbrowns at the store (which are full of garbage ingredients) and failed with those as well as they never cook right even following the directions to the "T".
I use you rice cooking method everytime I cook rice and it always turns out Excellent!
Thanks for these videos
Just made this (scrambled eggs and bacon included) for breakfast and it was great thanks for the recipe it’s a simple one but without this I may not have figured out things like draining the starch, what temperature etc so I very much appreciate this even if it’s a few years late lol.
Never too late brotha :)
hash browns with ketchup, bacon and scrambled eggs is the breakfast of champions
eddieisfiction nah fam ketchup hash browns and cheese
Waffle House fucks me up cause I eat so much there
nah the breakfast of kings is an omelette with lots of cheese so e sausages some bacon some biscuits toast and a glass of milk and a cup of coffee this is my daily breakfast not even kidding
Breakfast of champions is mac&cheese, beef brisket, a quarter pound of bacon, side of biscuit and gravy, and a cold Yeungling lager.
Good Tex-Mex Spicy Menudo is breakfast of Champions and Hangovers lol
Just tried this technique...amazing. I use a food processor which makes them longer and a little stringy and put water in the bottom of food processor bowl. Used a mixture of avocado oil and butter. Season with salt and pepper. Absolute hash brown perfection.
Currently almost 1am
me: decides I’m hungry
also me: watches this video bc I don’t know how to make hash browns
also also me: goes into kitchen to make hash browns.
Sees that there are no potatoes
Is mad bc I am hungry.
Shayna Rice 0047 right now. What am I doing at this hour?
Lmao im out also grrrrr 😠
Me: sees this at 2 am
Also me: cracks up XD
Also also me: starts crying cause I can relate
Me too, dunno how its made. This one is perfect!
lol so my life
Thank you. I learned something new with this video. I'm a good cook but there's always room for improvement.
Thank you so much! That’s the whole trick to getting them crispy is to drying them out!! Absolutely delish!
Wow!! Saturday morning breakfast! Coffee pancakes and these hash browns!! Made my day! Thanks for the recipe. I wish I could share a picture how it turned out :)
Thanks for this, I just tried making this for breakfast like...5 minutes ago..I had some hiccups grating the potato since I was trying so hard to not cut my hand but it came out alright for how small I made it..just a little seasoned salt and some fresh ground black pepper and this is 100 times more tasty than the local waffle house..maybe it's cause I made it myself? I notice that when you make something like this yourself that you've had at diners or other eating joints all the way to fancy sit down restaurants it seems to taste much better than when you ate it there.
I just tried this today after years of failed attempts using frozen hashbrowns...it work!!!! The hashbrowns were amazing!!!!
My hash browns always come out gummy. Now I know to rinse and dry them. Thanks for the tips!
you will find they taste so much better if you rinse them, to me if you dont rinse them they taste fishy
1of2shoes my hash browns came out crunchy like chips and they are not Brown wtf !!!

burplecow -huh? Not even sure how it would taste fishy unless you cooked it with fish
Excellent recipe! Never made hash browns from scratch and these came out perfect! Not sure why the dislikes- must have been too good for those people to handle
Easy, quick recipe. No complicated procedure. Excellent!! Thanks
A salad spinner works great for getting the water out of them!
After watching the video, I agree with you suggestion of a salad spinner a) you're not wasting water from running water to wash out the starch b) no extra laundry from using the tea towel or paper towel to get the potatoes dry 👍
How the hell can they pull this off in a restaurant. It seems it takes forever to make.
Prep
Well, they skip the fresh potato part. And they skip the thawing part. And they skip the drying part. And they multiply the butter by about 5. As mentioned, just enjoy it and don't look in the kitchen.
@@snakerstran9101 that explains why I always have to go to the bathroom shortly after eat at those places. I'm gonna stop eating there, lol.
Literally prep
It’s frozen and they put it in the grill
Thank you so much for your tutorial. I’ve been in the kitchen since the third grade. Today I learned from you what my hash browns were lacking. I new that the starch had to be removed, but I did not know the drying part. Also, I needed to be more generous with the oil & butter. Sir, I really, really love your technique because I followed you every step and my kid’s hash browns turned out to be fantastic. You made my day! Blessings to you and your loved ones! Thank you!💕🙌🏼👏🏻😍
Made these for my wife added a little onion and some seasonings now she says I have to make it for her every morning. 🤣
@@Jungle1048 ???
@@Jungle1048 Disgusting dude
@@Jungle1048 Grow up.
@@habdlekarbier what’s disgusting about it? It’s quite common place in relationships lol
I made these today, they were good thank you☺️ I was a little impatient so I didn't let the pan heat up at the way so they weren't as dark as yours😅 but they were still delicious 😋 I didn't have butter so I used alot of oil, still worked!! Also could be one of the reasons why it wasn't as golden brown as yours too
My father was a cook for many years and he made hashbrowns from leftover baked potatoes from the previous day. Put them in the frig overnight, peel and grate them and use clarified butter drizzled right through them while on the flattop. Much easier.
Great video! 1 question -- you said you can use the frozen/bagged hashbrowns from a supermarket. BUT, do you still have to go through the "de-starching" process (with the water rinsing) and then drying them, or are they ready to use as is? Thanks!
Dude got some straight up hashbrown skills y'all
My 11 year old brother made this. It’s not as hard as you think, it is very easy to make ( Very easy )
You are the best
Nothing better than simple and easy
Thank you
Can I move in with you? Everything you make is so delicious.
Dennis Miracle I want to move in too lol
Dennis Miracle yea, i feel the same
Got room for another?
me too!
meee too 😋
Everything you do is ... perfect.
panhead1219 Lmao what the heck, what difference does it make if it has the skin or not? And it doesn't have to be fattier to be better
panhead1219 the skins are covered with dirt and bacteria. Even after rinsing, some will remain. Furthermore, the skin will affect the mouthfeel, and the starch will affect the taste as well as mouthfeel. Not removing the skin and destarching the potato hence makes the hashbrowns unpleasant to eat.
Deez Nutz What if he likes dirt?
This recipe takes probably 45+ minutes to achieve results I get in 10. Wash the skins, don't bother peeling. Ignore the water steps completely. You don't have to worry about your potatoes oxidizing if you work quickly, and you don't have to worry about them sticking if you use enough oil while cooking. Finally, use a potato ricer to squeeze out the water out instead of hand squeezing and towel drying. The potatoes are drier via the ricer and a whole potato takes two squeezes.. maybe 20 seconds total... this method takes probably 20 minutes just for the squeezing and toweling.. plus another recommended 10 minutes to air dry them after.
I could make breakfast, eat, and clean the kitchen before this dude has a pan heating up on the stove.
panhead1219 OH PLEASE ARE YOU CHEF RAMSEY !
MANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN, where have you been all my life of lousy hash browns. What a GREAT Lesson I have just learned, and it was sooooooooo simple. Thanks Crouton.
My hashbrowns have never come out this nicely and now I know why! Thanks Jason!
Thank you so much man this was exactly what I needed to perfect my hash browns. Mine kept on getting stuck to the pan and I had no idea what to do
I made your hash brown recipe this morning and it turned out perfect. Thanks for sharing your pro tips!
For some reason I dont picture diners going through this much trouble everytime someone orders hashbrowns.
We do though. 😊 Just in very large amounts.
99% of diners just use frozen hash browns. Take them out of the bag and you're good to go.
Duh, they are prepared ahead of morning opening time.
When I cooked at Chili's we came in hours early to do prep. French fries take a lot more steps than you would think too ha ha 😷
We didn't. We got them pre-shredded and just had to fry/grill them, but the concept was the same.
Straight butter with a generous portion of minced onions thrown in.....Can't go wrong.
@Marc Whitakay It's Actually Rlly Good. You Just Gotta Mince It
@Carlos Spiceywhiener idk if there is a reason for your hate of onions besides preference. But I was just like you who hates most veggies. However as I've been learning to cook I've been forcing myself to eat more onions in my food and after doing that, I've actually gotten used to onions and even like it a bit. Never knew onions tasted sweet. I suggest for many foods you don't like, to try to eat them a good couple times. You may end up getting used to it and even liking some.
When it comes to hash browns, this step by step video recipe sets the standard. Thank you so much !
There's a whole lot more work than I would've guessed. I dont even want hashbrowns anymore....🤣😂🤣
koolfella 0431 i messed up 3x and am currently eating cereal now 🤦♂️
@@phoenixg1896 🤣😂🤣😂
This comment hit the spot 😂
Use the frozen ones and it’s a lot less work
It’s literally not that hard it’s really simple, just skin, shred, dry, and fry easy
I call this "Rösti". Greetings from switzerland 🇨🇭
Nic Anonymus we call it rösti in Finland too
Cool, i can one word in finnish! Greetings
Nic Anonymus you prob know sauna too, so thats two finnish words. you prob pronounce it wrong tho. its not SAWna its SOWna.
rosti is cooked then shreded then fryed
Just Cooked your Hash Browns for my mom and followed you recipe step by step and came out to perfection Thank you so Much! 👌
Just Made your Hash Browns again. 😋 So delicious! Love love love them....😋
Try using a salad spinner to dry potatoes vs ringing then spread out(if needed) :)
Thanks.
Since I can't go eat breakfast a Dennys I'm learning how to cook their breakfast at home 😂
I burnt the hell out of my hashbrowns, and my omelet turned to scrambled eggs
add some milk to the egg to make fluffy omelette😄
Byrein Mucia 10beers and 6 shots later i do the same thing. maybe stick to roman if this is a normal cooking fail for u. jk
Yuli Zhng whoa LL Cool J told me in Deep Blue Sea to whip the eggs and make them nice and bubbly right before they get cooked. He may be a rapper and actor, but that is the best way to cook eggs.
Keep trying on the omelette I got it on my third one. I get my pan hot enough that my egg mix sizzles when it goes in. Scrape everything towards the center and swirl the pan. Fold the egg horizontally and flip after about 30 sec
Mr. Goodtrips that was a little bit overkill. Mr. Growtits.
Great job man, Now I feel like making hash browns at 3 in the morning!😊😊😊😊😂😂😂😂😂😂
