Instructions

  1. Use a box grater or food processor to grate the potatoes and onion. Remove excess liquid from the shredded vegetables by letting them drain in a colander, blotting them dry with paper towels, or placing them in a clean dish towel to wring out the liquid.
  2. Place the potato and onion in a large bowl. Add the eggs, flour, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Stir to combine.
  3. Pour the oil into a large pan over medium high heat. Place heaping 1/4 cup servings of the potato mixture into the pan, then flatten the scoops into pancakes.
  4. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining potato mixture.
  5. Serve immediately, topped with sour cream, applesauce or fresh herbs if desired.
