Tips & Tricks

  1. Ensure the potatoes are boiled just enough to be firm but not fully cooked, as this helps in grating them easily.

  2. Use a non-stick skillet to avoid sticking and make flipping easier.

  3. Adjust the seasoning to your taste, but be cautious with the salt if using salted butter.
