Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 medium yellow onion diced small (about 1 1/4 cups)
1 egg
3 large russet baking potatoes, peeled, diced small (about 4 cups)
5 to 7 tablespoons flour
Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetable shortening for frying

Steps:

  • Blend the onion and egg in a blender until they are liquified. Add about a third of the potato cubes and blend very quickly, just until lumps disappear.
  • Add the rest of the potato cubes and stir them into the puree. Blend quickly to eliminate all lumps but do not puree for more than a minute. If you have to do this blending in batches, remove half the potato batter, add the rest of the cubes and puree quickly, and combine with the rest of the batter.
  • Pour all into a bowl and add the flour and salt and pepper. If the batter is very wet, blot the top with a towel until most of the water is eliminated.
  • To fry the pancakes, heat a heavy deep pan and melt the shortening to about a half-inch in depth.
  • When shortening is very hot, drop large spoonfuls of batter into the hot fat and allow the pancakes to brown on one side. Then turn them over very carefully and brown them on the other side.
  • Drain pancakes on paper towels. Serve immediately. If you are frying these in batches, keep them warm in a moderate oven for no more than 15 minutes.

These potato pancakes were a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. They were easy to make and they turned out delicious.

I've made potato pancakes before, but this recipe is by far the best. The pancakes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the flavor was perfect.

These potato pancakes were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would use less cayenne pepper next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my potato pancakes fell apart when I tried to flip them. I think I might have used too much oil.
