Open in Supper to scale servings and turn this into a grocery list.

Steps

1. Step 1

   Combine the flour, eggs, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Mix well until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.

2. Step 2

   Add the shredded potatoes and onion to the bowl. Mix everything until the potatoes and onion are evenly coated with the flour mixture.

3. Step 3

   Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat and add enough vegetable oil to cover the bottom of the pan.

4. Step 4

   Scoop ¼-⅓ cup of the potato mixture into the pan and flatten it slightly with the back of a spatula. Carefully place the flattened mixture into the hot oil. Repeat this step 2-3 more times to add more pancakes, leaving some space between each of them in the pan.

5. Step 5

   Cook the pancakes for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until they turn golden brown and crispy. (You may need to adjust the cooking time depending on the thickness of the pancakes.)

6. Step 6

   Once cooked, transfer the pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

7. Step 7

   Repeat the cooking process with the remaining potato mixture until it is all used.

8. Step 8

   Serve with apple sauce and freshly chopped parsley if desired.
