Potato Pancake Ingredients:
4 large potatoes |
1 medium onion |
1 large egg |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon white pepper |
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1 cup vegetable oil (for frying) |
Directions:
1. Grate potatoes and onion. Transfer to colander and squeeze mixture to press out as much liquid as possible. 2. In a large bowl, mix egg, salt, pepper, flour and baking powder. Add potato and onions, and mix well. 3. Heat oil in a deep, heavy skillet. 4. Drop about 2 tablespoons of potato mixture into the pan for each pancake. Flatten with back of spoon so each pancake is about 2 1/2 to 3 inches in diameter. 5. Fry over medium heat for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp. Turn carefully with 2 spatulas so oil does not splatter. 6. Drain on paper towels. 6. Before frying each new batch, stir potato mixture. If all the oil is absorbed, add a little more to the pan. |
