Grate the peeled potatoes using a box grater or food processor with a grating attachment.
Place the grated potatoes in a fine-mesh strainer and rinse under cold running water to remove excess starch. Press down with a paper towel to remove any moisture.
Place the potatoes in a large bowl and microwave for 30 seconds.
Season the potatoes with salt and black pepper.
In a large non-stick skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the shredded potatoes to the skillet, pressing it down with a spatula to form an even layer.
Cook the hash browns for about 7-9 minutes on one side, or until they are crispy and golden brown.
Remove from the skillet and place the hash browns on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serve hot and enjoy!
