Instructions

  1. Grate the peeled potatoes using a fine grater. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, finely grated onion, eggs, flour, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
  3. Allow the mixture to rest for 15 minutes. This helps the potatoes release more moisture, resulting in crispier pancakes.
  4. Heat a generous amount of vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Take a spoonful of the potato mixture and carefully place it in the hot oil. Flatten it slightly with the back of the spoon to form a pancake shape. You can make multiple pancakes at once, but be sure not to overcrowd the pan.
  6. Fry the pancakes for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. You may need to adjust the heat to prevent burning.
  7. Remove the cooked potato pancakes from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
  8. Continue this process until all the potato mixture is used, adding more oil to the pan as needed.
  9. Serve the potato pancakes hot, garnished with sour cream or applesauce if desired.
  10. Enjoy your delicious homemade potato pancakes!
  11. Notes:
  12. Be sure to squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the grated potatoes to ensure crispy pancakes.
  13. You can customize the seasoning to your liking, adding herbs or spices for extra flavour.
  14. Serve the potato pancakes as a side dish or with your favourite toppings, such as sour cream, applesauce, or smoked salmon.
