3 tbsp flour – optionally replace 1 tbsp flour with 1 tbsp oat flakes for more crunch

Oil for frying – e.g. rapeseed oil

Preparation:

Peel the potatoes and grate them finely. Then place them in a kitchen towel and squeeze them well. Finely chop the onion.
Mix the potatoes, onion, eggs, flour and salt.

notes

This recipe serves as a main course for two people. 400 grams of potatoes per person is absolutely sufficient. If you are only planning to eat the pancakes as a snack or starter, you can adjust the amount of potatoes accordingly. If you have any potato pancakes left over, you can reheat them in the pan the next day.
