Hash Browns

1. 1

   In a heavy medium saute pan, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat.

2. 2

   Spread the potatoes in an even layer in the saute pan, pressing down on them slightly with a spatula.

3. 3

   Season with salt and pepper and cook until the potatoes begin to brown on the bottom, 6 to 7 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally to prevent sticking.

4. 4

   Pour 1 tablespoon of the melted butter over the top of the potatoes.

5. 5

   Place a large plate over the pan and invert the potatoes onto the plate.

6. 6

   Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil to the pan, slide the potatoes back in, and brown on the other side, about 5 minutes more.

7. 7

   Season with salt and pepper and slide onto a platter.

8. 8

   Serve immediately.
