Ingredients
  • 5 lbs white potatoes
  • 4 medium yellow onions
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 Tbsp salt, or to taste
  • sunflower oil or other neutral oil for frying

Directions
  1. Coarsely grate potatoes and onions (a food processor saves a great deal of time).
  2. Salt the potato mixture to taste.
  3. Drain salted grated potatoes and onions in a sieve or colander, trying to reserve as much potato starch as possible. Discard liquid.
  4. Mix in eggs.
  5. Pour in just enough oil to cover the bottom of a nonstick frying pan.
  6. Place the pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, drop heaping tablespoonfuls of the potato mixture into the pan and flatten.
  7. Cook until golden-brown, approximately 3 minutes, depending on the stove. Flip and cook until the other side is also browned and crisp.
  8. Drain on a paper towel covered plate and keep warm in the oven.
  9. Replenish oil and repeat until all the batter is gone. Avoid using any liquid that accumulates in the bottom of the bowl.
  10. Serve with applesauce, sour cream, or smoked salmon.

This looks very similar to the ones the German chef I worked for made and I never got the recipe, so I'm thrilled. Thank you!


Looks Terrific! We eat these in a local deli and can't get enough of them.
