Since I have been buying boxed potato pancakes, I thought I'd try and make them myself. Using a Dr. Oetker cookbook I set out on my mission:
Easy enough. Just grate potatoes and onions. Blend in eggs and flour and season with salt:
Heat oil in a frying pan and start frying:
Flip 'em and you're done:
The problem I encountered with this, is that the potatoes retained so much moisture, that it was very messy to fry them. Really I cleaned up grease from my stovetop and countertops for days, not to mention the smell. I didn't like them, especially compared to the ones out of the box. So, I'll stick with those for now.
