Time 20m

Yield 8 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (8-ounce) potato
1 teaspoon puréed garlic (2 large cloves, crushed through a garlic press)
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon flour
Olive oil for frying

Steps:

  • Peel the potato and shred it into long strands onto a clean tea towel. Roll up the potatoes in the towel and twist over the sink to extract as much liquid as possible. Place the potatoes in a bowl. Add the garlic, pepper and salt and toss with a fork until mixed. Sprinkle with the flour and toss again.
  • Pour enough oil into a large nonstick skillet to cover the bottom and heat until almost smoking. Making 4 pancakes at a time, spoon a tablespoon of the potato mixture into the skillet and flatten into lacy 3-inch rounds with the back of a fork. Fry until crisp and golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels and keep warm while frying the remaining pancakes.
