POLISH POTATO PANCAKES RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• 1.NOTE: Keep potatoes covered in water to keep them from turning brown - it even works overnight! Squeeze grated potatoes in paper towels to drain excess moisture. Mix potatoes, onion, eggs, salt, and pepper. Add flour bit by bit, using enough flour to bind the mixture together but leaving it still somewhat thin. In a large, heavy skillet set over medium-high heat, add enough vegetable oil to come to a depth of 1/4 inch. Heat until hot, but not smoking. Drop tablespoonfuls of potato mixture into skillet and spread out to a 3-inch circle, about 1/4-inch thick. Fry until brown on the bottom (don't turn until the pancake is brown or it will stick), about 3 to 5 minutes, reducing the heat to medium, if needed, to prevent burning. Turn the pancake and fry the other side 3 to 5 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Drain on paper towels. Serve with granulated sugar or sour cream.

POLISH POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• Sauté onions, cabbage and garlic until soft.
• Peel and fine-grate potatoes, or dice and use a blender. The potatoes need to be a real purée. It's ok to add water to blend, as later you MUST put the potatoes into a fine mesh strainer and let the water seep out.
• After 2 or 3 strainings to remove excess water (takes 30 minutes or so), put potato "mud" into a bowl and add egg, salt, pepper, and flour and mix well.
• Add sautéed onion-cabbage mixture to potatoes, mixing well.
• Heat thin layer of oil in electric frypan at 300° F, drop large spoonfuls of mixture into pan and smooth out to a thin pancake about 3-4" in diameter.
• Cook about 5-7 minutes a side until nicely browned and crisp.
• Place on a paper towel lined plate, keeping warm as you do other batches.
• Serve with sour cream.
