Before you start make sure that you have an adequate pan which is either cast iron and well used or a modern large saucepan skillet with teflon coating!.
The secret to perfect hash browns is a good pan, the temperature of the heat, using oil or shortening (and not butter) - but most importantly only turning them one time! This ensures the crispy texture that you expect from a perfect has brown recipe!.

Apparently, it invloves removing as much water as you can from the potatoes!. This guy (see link) uses a "potato ricer" (whatever that is)!. I use my hands!. I grate the potato into a bowl of water + tablespoon lemon juice (to prevent discoloration), then when I'm ready to fry, I take a big handful and **Sqeeeeeze**!.
I use a frightening amount of oil too, and resist the temptation to turn/peek under the potato hash until I can see the edges browned and the whole thing peeling away from the pan on its own!. also, never try to make a thick one!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Grate the potatoes first and and squeeze them with you hard to let the water out of the potatoes!.
For every cup of grated potato, mix it with a 1/4 cup of corn starch!.
Put the squeeze potatoes in a bowl and add corn starch!. Mix them well and grab a hand full then squeeze it tight!. Make a patty about 1/4 of an inch and fry in hot oil!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
