Potato Pancakes

By fsilver4

So, my mother used to make potato pancakes when I was a young girl, but they seemed mushy, and quite frankly they didn't taste of anything. I've been trying ways to make the potato pancakes so that they have flavor and texture, so this is a real triumph for me.

Ingredients

• 2 cups shredded potatoes, I use a food processor to shred the potatoes, about 2 golden potatoes
• 3 eggs, well beaten
• 2 to 3 tablespoons flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 or 3 tablespoons chopped dill
• 1/4 cup scallions including the green part, chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Dry potatoes by squeezing with thick paper towels. Mix everything together in a large bowl with a spoon.

In a skillet, heat vegetable oil to medium high. Grab a handful of potatoes and lay them in a heap in the skillet and flaten them. Saute them until golden brown on both sides and serve with sour cream.
