Instructions

  1. Peel and grate the potatoes with a medium grater (or coarse one).
  2. Squeeze grated potato in a hand or in a towel or cheesecloth to remove as much moisture.
  3. Let them drain for 30 minutes.
  4. In the meantime peel and small dice the onion.
  5. Preheat the fat to 180°C. The fat layer should be 2 cm (0,8 inches) thick.
  6. In a large bowl mix drained potatoes, eggs, salt, black pepper, potato starch. Mix well. The mixture should have a thick consistency. If there is a liquid you should remove it.

  8. Before serving place the potato pancakes on a paper towel, to absorb the excess oil!
  9. Serve warm with apple sauce or herb Quark on the side.
