Peel the potatoes and grate them using a box grater or a food processor with a grating attachment. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This will help achieve crispy hash brown patties.
Transfer the squeezed grated potatoes to a bowl and season them with salt, pepper, and other desired seasonings. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of the seasonings.
Take a handful of the seasoned grated potatoes and press them firmly together to form a patty shape. The size and thickness of the patties are up to your preference.
Preheat your air fryer to 370 degrees F (190°C) for a few minutes. Lightly spray the hash brown patties with oil on both sides to promote crispiness. Place the patties in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Set cook time for 10 to 12 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
After the initial cooking time, check the hash brown patties for a golden brown and crispy exterior. If needed, cook for a few additional minutes until they reach your desired level of crispiness.
Serve and enjoy: Once the hash brown patties are cooked to your liking, remove them from the air fryer and let them cool slightly. Serve them as a delicious side dish for breakfast or any meal of your choice.
