Sunday Brunch: Ina Garten's Hashed Browns: Best Ever?
Good hashed browns, really good hashed browns, are indeed a beautiful thing. Serious eaters know this because we've all been exposed to so many bad hashed browns; we truly appreciate the good ones. I have found the best way to ensure eating crunchy, crispy-edged, tender-on-the-inside hashed browns is to make them yourself. I've adapted this recipe from Ina Garten's terrific Barefoot Contessa Family Style cookbook.

1
Melt the butter in a large (10" or 12") saute pan. Add the potatoes, onions, salt, and pepper and cook over medium-low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, turning occasionally with a flat spatula, until the potatoes are evenly browned and cooked through. Allow the potatoes to cook for a minimum of six minutes (until they are least golden brown) before turning.
