Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and grated
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Oil for frying
- Sour cream for serving
- Chives or green onions for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes and chopped onion.
- Add eggs, flour, salt, and pepper to the mixture. Stir until well combined.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan.
- Once the oil is hot, spoon a portion of the potato mixture into the skillet, flattening it slightly to form a pancake.

Notes
- For extra crispiness, squeeze out excess moisture from the grated potatoes using a clean kitchen towel.
