Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 pounds starchy potatoes, peeled and very finely grated 
  • 1 small yellow onion, very finely grated. I use my cuisinart food processor 
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour 
  • teaspoon salt and black pepper each.. each !
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  • Thoroughly  get out the liquid in the grated potatoes by placing them in a colander and squeezing them with your hands or by placing them in a clean  towel and out the liquid.  
  • Place the drained grated potatoes in a medium-sized bowl with the grated onion, eggs, flour and salt and use your hands to work it into a tacky mixture.  Add a little more flour if needed.  Do no let the mixture sit for long before using it, use it immediately. It will get brown 
  • Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and place 1/3 to 1/2 cup of the mixture (depending on size preference) in the hot pan and flatten into pancakes with the using the back of a spatula.  Fry on both sides for 3-5 minutes until the Pancakes are golden.  Place them briefly on paper towels.
