Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Russet potatoes 3–4 large potatoes
- 1 onion yellow
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp salt
- oil for frying
Instructions
- Using a grater, roughy shred the potatoes and onion. Then toss them together in a large bowl.
- Using a clean kitchen towel or some clean paper towels, squeeze out as much liquid as you can from the potato and onion shreds.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg, flour, and salt.
- Pour egg mixture into the potato shreds.
- Stir well to coat all potato shreds evenly.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat with enough oil to form a thin layer on the bottom, approximately ⅛" deep.
- Use a large spoon to transfer a scoop of the potato mixture into the pan, then flatten it with a spatula.
- Allow potato pancake to cook 3–4 minutes or until the edges are starting to brown.
- Flip pancake and continue cooking for an additional 3–4 minutes.
- Repeat until all the potato shreds have been used up. (I made 8 pancakes, but the number you get depends on the size you make them.) You may need to add additional frying oil between batches.
Notes
- Do not rinse the potato shreds, the starch will help the pancake stick together.
- Both sides of the potato pancakes should be golden brown when finished.
- You can keep the finished potato pancakes in the oven in a baking dish at 200°F while you finish cooking the rest.
- Garnish your pancakes with sour cream and green onions!
- You can add some of your favorite seasonings to the potato mixture for additional flavor if you desire.
