PANCAKE - BRAMBORACKY (CZECH SAVORY POTATO PANCAKES) RECIPE - (5/5)

Provided by tinathorn

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large potatoes
3 cloves garlic, crushed
salt and black pepper to taste
1 pinch dried marjoram (optional)
2 teaspoons caraway seeds (optional)
2 eggs
1 tablespoon milk
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
oil for frying

Steps:

  • Peel and coarsely grate the potatoes, squeezing out as much liquid as you can. Transfer the shredded potatoes to a mixing bowl. Stir in the crushed garlic, salt, pepper, marjoram, and caraway seeds. Beat the eggs with the milk. Add the egg mixture to the potatoes and stir well to combine. Gradually mix in the flour to form a thick but still pourable batter. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; the oil should be about 1/4-inch deep. Spoon about 1/4 cup of batter into the hot oil, flattening it slightly. Fry the pancake until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Taste the first pancake and adjust the seasoning if necessary; repeat with remaining batter.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality potatoes: Choose starchy potatoes like russet or Yukon Gold for the best results.
  • Grate the potatoes finely: This will help the pancakes cook evenly and become crispy.
  • Squeeze out excess liquid: Use a cheesecloth or kitchen towel to remove as much liquid as possible from the grated potatoes. This will prevent the pancakes from becoming soggy.
  • Use a well-seasoned pan: A cast iron or non-stick skillet is ideal for cooking potato pancakes. Make sure the pan is hot before adding the batter.
  • Cook the pancakes in batches: Do not overcrowd the pan, or the pancakes will not cook evenly. Cook them in batches of 2-3 pancakes at a time.
  • Flip the pancakes carefully: Use a spatula to carefully flip the pancakes when they are golden brown on the bottom. Be careful not to break them.
  • Serve immediately: Potato pancakes are best served hot and crispy. Serve them with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, applesauce, or smoked salmon.
