American here; I appreciate the correction. This is a great method and I will be doing this going forward. And Corden's existence is a hate crime. Love the channel.
Never heard of James Corden, and will take your word for it that he's not worth looking up. That said, I did learn to make hashbrowns from a Cajun guy in Port Arthur Texas many decades ago. Exactly the same method except he cooked them in one giant patty and just flipped them over a few times until perfect. Once the first side gets a bit crispy, they hold together to flip pretty well, but of course flipping can be tricky because shredded potatoes, just like pastry and bread dough, can sense fear. He didn't have any, so it worked great. But I do, so I use a big spatula. BTW, Cajun folk cooking (Louisiana and parts of Texas mostly), conducted more often than not outdoors in the back yard, is bloody magnificent.
An American here, but had to move to the northern most state, disconnected with the rest to survive, outside of jail. Will give your salt trick a try. You got a sub from me just for the commentary, BTW who's this James bloke, never herd of him, but don't own a telly ether.
Those hash browns look great and the Americans are welcome to keep Cordon as long as they promise never to send him back. They can send John Oliver back instead.
Those hash browns look delicious! A wonderful and wonderfully unhealthy comfort food is a Southern American buttermilk biscuit, split and filled with a crispy hash brown patty right out of the grease. So very, very unhealthy for the body, yet so soothing for the soul.
It’s interesting. I think I’ve only ever had hash brown patties at McDonalds. I’m more used to latkes cooked in schmalz or oil, or the whole hash brown being one giant plate. I honestly wish that hash brown patties were more common
Wow. Americans do NOT like James Corden, brother. He slithered out the sarlac pit of some British Woman, the British and their BBC made him famous, and we've been forced to deal with him thanks to the ancient dinosaur known as network television.
These look perfect, and yes, salting is much better than soaking. As an American, please, take Corden back. I feel that the only ones that like him are also Trump supporters.
PS, I trained chefs and hotel management students over 30 years, trained Tom Kerridge amongst many others, worked in Hotels, restaurants, Michelin hotels and as an assessor for industry. Keep it simple, that's the way, and always use an h injection of humour where appropriate. Love it.
Depends on the recipe. I think American Hash browns are pure potato. Also if you add onion you will see the recipe call for flour and also egg to help bind it and making frying them a nightmare as the onion will cook quicker than the potatoes - unless you use a deep fat fryer lol.
I've never had hash browns fried with clarified butter. That sounds like something a pretentious celebrity chef would do. It's been a very long time since I've made hash browns, but if I did, I would probably use schmaltz, beef tallow or lard. Animal fats have a much better flavor. On the subject of animal fats, James Corden is an ass.
As an American I take offense to being accused of "enjoying" James Corden. I never could watch his show but I would prefer to be belt-sanded than endure that talentless fake sack of sadness. If only we could have kept Craig Furgeson.
I absolutely approve of the delicious, crispy and for me unfortunately deadly hash browns (I might as well jump off the Transporter as eat anything with fat in it - paying for a lifetime of excess!) but what's the issue with Corden? I've always found him pretty harmless, and he's a damn good script-writer on the quiet.
You've clearly never actually had american diner crunchy hash browns. Yours look more like potato cakes because of you squeezing, pressing them together. Confidently incorrect.

Laughed from start to finish at this one 😂😂😂😂😂 the hashes look amazing, going to try them this week.
Corden is now a euphemism for Lard.
😂 I'll be using this going foward!
Genuinely the best cooking video I've seen in a long time
Love the recipe man! Followed you for a while! Glad you have gotten a bit of breakthrough.
Thanks a lot mate
This is amazing! I don't have to fry up my precious lard to make these- brilliant!
I just did this recipe, and I’ve got to say, absolutely phenomenal. My mostly anti-potato wife even liked them. the salt and drain worked great.

Thankyou for sharing your story mate and congratulations that you've never heard of James Corden

Thanks mate. Appreciate it. Also, congrats on not knowing James Corden. You're truly blessed❤
Oh, God, I want those! Thanks for this, Mr Teesside. x
You are so welcome
This is the one I was looking for. Cheers.
Those hash browns look great and the Americans are welcome to keep Cordon as long as they promise never to send him back. They can send John Oliver back instead.
Take them both back, pleeeeease.
Please, take Oliver.
No deal
Great video. Greetings from America
The carpool karaoke bit had me dying 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Legend. Thank you

And sausage gravy! Don't forget the sausage gravy!!!
This is the most amazing channel. Fuckin love it a smidge yeah.
Brilliant commentary Chef 😂 and fabulous hash browns
Thank you 😋
Those are potato pancakes
Yeah exactly. Hashbrowns
What did you think a hash brown was
It’s interesting. I think I’ve only ever had hash brown patties at McDonalds. I’m more used to latkes cooked in schmalz or oil, or the whole hash brown being one giant plate. I honestly wish that hash brown patties were more common
And apropos of nothing, I couldn't agree with you more re. Corden.
Wow. Americans do NOT like James Corden, brother. He slithered out the sarlac pit of some British Woman, the British and their BBC made him famous, and we've been forced to deal with him thanks to the ancient dinosaur known as network television.
i save the starch for other recipes
I'd pay to watch someone turn James Cordon in Hash Browns! I wouldn't eat them though; too bitter and gristly
These look perfect, and yes, salting is much better than soaking. As an American, please, take Corden back. I feel that the only ones that like him are also Trump supporters.
hahaha
Excuse you, we do not like James Corden. Take him back, please!
No returns after 30days I’m afraid
I think James Corden is terrible and will be trying this hash brown recipe. 🇺🇸
"How to make better hashbrowns" *adds animal fat*
Rosti, but who cares, brilliantly amusing commentary; suggest you hold the grater upright,....marra...

I thought hash browns had onion mixed in

Cook it in bacon fat then you get bacon and hash browns. Done...
Enjoying the james corden hate.
Wow I love u.

Nah I'm sticking with Kent. He knows better than y'all.
Those are French fries mate
No, they certainly are NOT French fries.
Have you ever been served what you saw cooked here with a burger in a fast food restaurant?
As an American I take offense to being accused of "enjoying" James Corden. I never could watch his show but I would prefer to be belt-sanded than endure that talentless fake sack of sadness. If only we could have kept Craig Furgeson.
Talentless fake sack of sadness 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Bravo 🤣
Damn i enjoy watching James Gordon. He has moments where he is funny. 🤷♂️ I dont think he is cringy. This looks bomb thought! 🔥🔥🔥
Yeh I love the way he worked with Batman to take down the Joker.
ASMR is over. Please stop scraping your food. We understand crispy. Everyone understands crispy.

You are an admirable person to show such tolerance and find the good in people mate. Maybe I need to work on my anger issues lol

No one cares.
Your joking aren’t ya
