Ingredients

    Directions

    Step 1

    Peel and shred the potatoes using a box grater or food processor. Place the shredded potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture.

    Step 2

    Finely chop the onion and add it to the bowl with the shredded potatoes.

    Step 3

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded potatoes, onion, flour, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.

    Step 4

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, drop spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the skillet, flattening them slightly.

    Step 5

    Cook the pancakes for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

    Step 6

    Repeat the process with the remaining potato mixture, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.

    Conclusion

    Tips:Serve these crispy potato pancakes with sour cream, applesauce, or your favorite dipping sauce. For extra flavor, add garlic powder or fresh herbs to the mixture. These pancakes are best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated in a toaster oven to restore their crispiness.
