To cook up the most delicious, tongue-tantalizing hash browns, celebrity chef and restaurant owner Gordon Ramsay relies on one simple trick: using waxy potatoes.

In a cooking session on Dabl Network, Ramsay explains that waxy potatoes cook better than other types of spuds because they hold themselves together.

This is important to consider, especially if you like those stick-together potato patties found in most American diners at breakfast.

To ensure the flavor profile of waxy potatoes permeates the whole batch of hash browns, peel your potatoes and grate them with a box cutter.

Once mixed with olive oil, onions, and seasoning, squeeze the spuds over a colander to wring out as much water as possible. This will ensure they will turn out crispy.
