Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds russet potatoes
1 large yellow onion
Kosher salt
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
Freshly ground pepper
Canola or vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Shred the potatoes and onion in a food processor or with a grater or mandoline. Place in a strainer that has been lined with cheesecloth or a damp kitchen towel. Toss with 3/4 teaspoon salt and let sit over a bowl to drain for 30 minutes.
  • Gather the top of the cheesecloth and use your hands to squeeze out as much excess moisture as you can. Transfer the vegetables to a clean bowl; mix in the eggs, lemon juice, flour and some pepper.
  • Heat 1/4 inch canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in batches so as not to crowd the pan, fry loosely packed rounded tablespoons of the potato mixture until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Add more oil to the pan and adjust the temperature as needed. Transfer to a paper towel?lined plate, season with salt and set aside.
