Better is to put the grated 'taters in a clean towel and wring it tightly. It gets rid of more water than the paper towel method. Also, soak the grated 'taters in cold water for a bit first as that helps to get rid of excess starch and makes for a crisper 'tater. I like to cook 'em in a blend of butter and oil, maybe add some dried, fresh ground, hot pepper powder to the oil mixture well.
