Crispy Potato Pancakes (Latkes)
Instructions
Grate and Squeeze the Potatoes:
Grate potatoes using a box grater or food processor.
Wrap grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture for extra crispiness.
Combine the Mixture:
In a large bowl, mix shredded potatoes, minced onion, beaten egg, flour, salt, and pepper until evenly combined.
Cook the Pancakes:
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Scoop heaping tablespoons of the potato mixture and flatten slightly with a spatula to form pancakes.
Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Fry to Golden Brown:
Fry pancakes for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
Drain and Serve:
Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve hot with your favorite toppings.
