Instructions

1. Rinse grated soaked potatoes until water runs clear. Drain and squeeze out all water in a dish towel until completely dry. Mix with 2 tbsp (30 ml) of melted butter and sea salt.
2. In a 6-in (15 cm) non-stick frying pan over medium heat, add 1 tbsp (15 ml) melted butter. Add potatoes, pressing down to form a cake. Cook for 5 to 8 minutes, or until golden brown on bottom. Place a plate on top of pan and flip upside down so hash brown flips onto plate. Place pan back onto heat and add remaining butter. Gently slide hash brown back into pan and continue cooking until other side is crisp and golden brown and potatoes are cooked through. Place on a serving plate and garnish with sour cream and chives.
