Sweet Potato Hash Browns
The recipe is simple and requires only three ingredients. The best part is, you can enjoy these tasty browns for breakfast or a side dish (or an afternoon snack).
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds sweet potato, peeled, shredded
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Instructions
- Mix sweet potatoes and onions in a large bowl. Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil over medium-low to medium heat in a large skillet. Add about half of the sweet potatoes and onions, and stir to coat. Press with a spatula to flatten. Cook about 7-8 minutes; do not stir.
- Flip, and cook another 3-5 minutes. Remove from skillet, and set aside. Repeat to cook remaining vegetables. When done, combine the two batches in the skillet. Cook another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve immediately.
- Yield: 8 servings (serving size: about ½ cup)

Notes
- To shred potatoes, it's best to use a food processor (shredding disc attachment), although you can do it by hand.
- Use a combination of sweet potatoes and Yukon Gold or russet potatoes.
- Makes a great breakfast dish.
Can I have broiled plantains on broiled sweet potatoes on the Daniel fast. Like broiling in the oven?
Yes, both are fine for the Daniel Fast, as long as you don’t top them with any foods that aren’t allowed! If you like plantains, check out my Plantain Chips recipe.
I’m a little confused on the instructions. After you flip and cook and you cook the remainder of the sweet potatoes, you put it all back into the skillet again?
Yes, just to warm up the first batch. The only reason to do that is if you have too many shredded sweet potatoes to fit in the skillet at the same time. Does that make more sense? Thanks for your question!
Awesome!! I love sweet potatoes and always look for different ways to cook them. I just tried cutting them in circles rubbing in olive oil and baking. It tasted so good It felt like I should not be eating them. I will try them shredded.
When I initially left a comment I seem to have clicked on the -Notify me when new

Is there an easy method you are able to remove me from that
service? Many thanks!
I’m sorry that happened! Unfortunately, I have no idea why you’re getting duplicates, and I’m also not sure how to correct it. I’ll see what I can do. Thanks for letting me know!
Hi Kristen,
I must say my original reason to do the Daniel Fast was to lose weight; to clean my system out and to get sugar out of my system. It’s been an awesome 1st week learning different recipes that actually taste wonderful. I have a friend whose vegan and he is ecstatic that I am refraining from meat for at least 3 weeks. Reading daily the word of God and praying for others than myself is making this more about what God wants and less about losing weight but with rewards. Thank you for hearing and obeying the word of God!
Denise, that’s a wonderful testimony of how God has been working in your life. Thank you for sharing! I pray God will bless you in BIG WAYS as you press on to know Him!
I want to first say thanks. My nephew’s wife asked me to the Daniel Fast with her – I needed to focus on the right reason — not the bonus of losing weight. I got your book and WOW, I realized how many reasons I really needed this fast. Moving forward on things I have not pushed out of the way. Thank you and God Bless.
Sandy, thank you for your comment! God has great things in store for you as you submit to Him in ALL areas of your life. May He pour out His favor on you during this fast!
