Hassle Free Hash Browns

Yield: 100 servings

Ingredients

• 35 pounds baking potatoes
• 3 pounds onions, finely diced
• Seasoning salt, to taste
• Vegetable oil

Instructions

1. One or two days ahead, heat oven to 400 degrees F and scrub potatoes well. Arrange in oven on racks, without touching (you may have to do this in batches.)
2. Bake potatoes until fork-tender.
3. Cool, chill in refrigerator and then store in plastic bags or containers.
4. When cool, the potatoes can be sliced and/or diced, leaving the skins on, and stored until ready to cook.
5. To cook, pan fry in a little oil, adding chopped onion and sprinkling generously (or to taste) with seasoning salt, cooking until golden and crispy.

Notes

SAFETY TIP: NEVER cook baked potatoes in foil. It is no longer considered a safe method as the moist area inside the foil can breed bacteria at a fast rate.
