When I was young I used to eat in a cafe that served potato pancakes. They were served with apple sauce and they were sweet enough that syrup wasn't needed. I would love to have a recipe for these.

2 eggs, beaten
4 medium russet potatoes (about 8 ounces each), peeled and shredded using the largest holes of a hand grater(another version calls for cooked potatos pressed through a colander)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup grated onion(i personal dont like onion in my kartoffelpufferso i replace the onipn with grated apples)
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil



Combine the eggs, flour, onion(or apple), salt, and sugar, stirring to blend. Using your hands, squeeze out as much liquid as you can from the potatoes. Add the potatoes to the egg mixture, mixing well.

In a large, heavy skillet, heat some of the oil over medium-high heat. Spoon the batter by quarter-cupfuls onto the hot skillet, flattening them with the back of the spoon. Fry until the bottom of the pancakes are nicely browned - between 3 and 5 minutes; flip the pancakes and cook for about 3 minutes longer. Repeat for the remaining pancakes, adding oil to the skillet as needed.

Drain on paper towels and serve immediately
serve with sweet apple sauce

2 baking potato
1 large sweet onion
1 tbsp flour
salt and pepper to taste
oil for frying

Instructions: Peel and grate potato. Cut onion in half then peel and grate one half. Add potato and onion to large bowl. Sprinkle flour over potato and onion. Season with salt and pepper. Toss potato, onion, flour and seasonings together. Make sure flour coats everything. You may need to add another tablespoon of flour if mixture looks too wet. Heat oil in frying pan. Using either a 1/2 cup or 3/4 cup measure scoop up mixture and drop carefully into pan. Immediately flatten with a spatula to resemble a pancake shape. Check underside and turn when golden brown. Repeat until all pancakes are made. Serve hot with homemade applesauce on the side.

Finally-someone who eats potato pancaked like I do!!! 2 cups leftover mashed, a little on the dry side is good 1 egg 1 small onion chopped fine Panko bread crumbs chopped garlic to taste salt & pepper Mix the potatos & egg, if the mix is too thick add a little cream or milk. Stir in the onion, garlic (for variety you can add any herbs you like also) form into a golfball size lump then flatten between your palms. Press into the bread crumbs. You don't need a wash, the crumbs will adhere to the potatos. Fry in butter or olive oil till the outside is golden brown & crispy. I like mine with chopped green onion & thousand Island dressing. Can also be treated like real pancakes (butter & syrup) Doesn't matter they're good any old way.

my mom makes them. She uses day old mashed potatoes and adds an egg and flour and makes patties out of it and then fries them. Not sure how much of everything and not sure if this is what you are talking about. If you want me to find out exact, contact me and let me know.
