Ingredients
- 1,8 lb potatoes (800 g)
- 1 ¼ cup whole milk (300 ml)
- 3,5 oz plain flour (100 g)
- 1 large egg
- olive oil
- pepper
- salt
Instructions
-
Peel the potatoes and rinse them. Drain on a clean kitchen towel. Grate the potatoes finely.
-
In a large mixing bowl add the egg and the pastry flour.
-
Mix well and pour in the milk.
-
Whisk into a runny batter. Season with pepper and salt to taste. Add the grated potatoes to the bowl.
-
Stir well to coat the potatoes with the batter. In a non-stick pan pour a little drop of olive oil and place it over medium heat until hot. Then add a bit of the grated potato batter. Don't add too much or the pancake will be too thick and will still be raw in the middle later on. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes until the grated potato starts to brown.
-
Flip the potato pancake over onto its uncooked side.
-
Turn the heat low. Cook the potato pancake for another 7 to 8 minutes until the potato is cooked all the way through. Transfer the crunchy potato pancake onto some kitchen paper to drain and cover with a sheet of tinfoil to keep warm. Add new badges of the potato batter to the hot pan. Cook pancakes until all of the batter is used.
