Directions
40 min.
1. Step
Peel the potatoes and onion, then grate them using a box grater.
2. Step
Place the grated potatoes and onion in a clean dish towel and squeeze to remove as much liquid as possible.
3. Step
Transfer the grated and dried potatoes and onion to a bowl. Stir in eggs, flour, salt, and pepper and mix until the flour is absorbed.
4. Step
In a large non-stick pan, heat a shallow pool of oil on medium heat. Once hot, drop in spoonfuls of the potato mixture, pressing them down with the back of the spoon to flatten the pancakes.
5. Step
Fry the pancakes on both sides until they're golden brown, about 5 minutes per side.
6. Step
Once cooked, place them on a paper towel to soak up any excess oil. Season with additional salt, if needed.
7. Step
Serve the potato pancakes warm with sour cream or applesauce, if desired.
