Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 large russet potato
1 small yellow onion
1 egg
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
salt and pepper
peanut oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Peel potato and onion and grate in a box grater or using the shredder attachment of a food processor. Squeeze as much liquid as possible out of the shredded vegetables -- the best way to do this is to put it in cheesecloth and squeeze hard over the sink.
  • Combine vegetables with remaining ingredients except for peanut oil and stir to combine with a fork.
  • Heat a few good sloshes of peanut oil over medium-high heat in a cast-iron or other heavy-bottomed sauté pan. Drop small blobs of potato mixture into oil -- it should sputter happily -- and cook until golden on the bottom. Flip pancakes and cook the other side. Drain on a paper towel and keep warm in a 200 degree oven until ready to serve.
