Ingredients

4 large potatoes, peeled and grated

2 large eggs
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

Prepare the Mixture

Grate Potatoes

Peel and grate the potatoes. Place the grated potatoes in a large bowl and squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.

Combine Ingredients

Add the finely chopped onion, eggs, flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper to the grated potatoes. Mix well until everything is combined.

Cook the Pancakes

Heat Oil

Heat a generous amount of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Fry Pancakes

Drop spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the hot oil, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon to form pancakes. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Drain

Remove the pancakes from the skillet and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
