Zubereitung von Grated Potato Pancakes
- Peel the 2 large russet potatoes and grate them using the large holes of a box grater.
- Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. This step is crucial for crispy pancakes!
- Heat 1 tablespoon of canola oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is shimmering hot, add about 1/2 of the grated potatoes to the skillet. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Use a spatula to gently press the potatoes into a flat, even pancake shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Reduce heat to medium. Cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until the pancake is nicely browned on the bottom, about 5-7 minutes.
- Carefully flip the pancake. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of canola oil around the edges of the pancake.
- Gently tilt the pan to distribute the oil evenly.
- Season the other side with salt and pepper.
- Continue cooking until golden brown and crisp on both sides, another 5-7 minutes.
- Transfer the pancake to a cutting board and repeat steps 4-10 with the remaining grated potatoes.
- Cut the pancakes into wedges.
- Serve immediately and enjoy! Garnish with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, chives, or applesauce.
