Easy Potato Pancakes

Posted in Recipes

1 (30 oz) bag frozen potatoes (shredded)
1 c. sweet onions, finely diced
2 eggs, beaten
salt to taste
1 tsp. black pepper
2 TBLS. flour
1 TBLS. cornstarch
vegetable oil (for frying)
  1. Defrost grated potatoes in a colander. Press with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  2. Add onion, eggs, salt, pepper and flour. Mixture should be thick and cohesive.
  3. Pour about 1/4 inch of oil into a heavy-bottomed frying pan.
  4. Use about 2 Tablespoons potato mixture and place in the oil and press into a patty.
  5. Fry for about 3 minutes. Flip and fry for another 3  minutes. If pancake cooks too fast, reduce oil's temperature. If it takes longer, turn the oil up so pancafes don't get soggy.
  6. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately, (or keep in a 250 oven on a baking sheet).

Great served with any kind of pork or bacon.  We top with sour cream or applesauce.
