How to Make Cajun Style Oven Hash Browns

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and peel 2 pounds of russet potatoes. Shred potatoes using a box grater or food processor.
  3. Squeeze out excess moisture from the shredded potatoes using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. This step is crucial for extra crispy hash browns.
  4. Spread the shredded potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons paprika, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  6. Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the potatoes.
  7. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the potatoes.
  8. Gently toss the potatoes with a spatula to ensure even coating.
  9. Bake for 40-45 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through (around 20-22 minutes) with a spatula to ensure even browning and crispiness.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy!
