Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium red potatoes, peeled and coarsely grated
- 6 button mushrooms, finely chopped
- 1 small red onion, cut into very thin slices
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 each green, red, and yellow peppers, finely diced
Instructions
- Thoroughly wash, peel, and coarsely grate the red potatoes. Use a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out excess moisture from the grated potatoes.
- Finely chop the mushrooms, thinly slice the red onion, and dice the bell peppers into small, even pieces.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
- Add the sliced onions to the hot pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften. Next, add the mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes.
- Add the grated potatoes to the pan, spreading them evenly. Season with salt and pepper. Let them cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes to develop a crispy bottom layer.
- Sprinkle the diced bell peppers over the potatoes, then gently fold everything together.
- Press the mixture down with a spatula and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, flipping sections occasionally, until golden brown and crispy on the outside while tender inside.
Notes
- For lower-carb, substitute half the potatoes with grated cauliflower.
- Yukon gold potatoes can be used for better texture.
- Add fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme for even more flavor.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat in a skillet for best texture.
