Recipe for Classic Potato Pancakes (Draniki)

Ingredients:

4 medium potatoes
1 small onion
1 egg
2-3 tbsp all-purpose flour
Salt and pepper to taste
Oil for frying (vegetable or sunflower)
Instructions:

Prepare the Ingredients: Peel and grate the potatoes and onion. For best results, use the fine side of the grater to get a smooth texture. Transfer to a large bowl and mix well.

Remove Excess Moisture: Press the grated mixture gently with a clean towel or cheesecloth to remove excess liquid. This helps make the pancakes crispier.

Add Egg and Flour: Mix in the egg, then add flour, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined. The batter should hold together but not be too runny.

Heat Oil: Add oil to a large skillet and heat over medium-high.

Cook the Draniki: Spoon batter into the skillet, pressing lightly to form small pancakes. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy.

Serve: Remove from pan and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with sour cream or applesauce. Enjoy!
