How to Make Irish Potato Carrot Pancakes

  1. Peel 2 medium potatoes and 1 medium carrot.
  2. Grate the potatoes and carrot using a box grater.
  3. Wrap the grated vegetables in several layers of paper towels and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. This step is crucial for crispy pancakes!
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the grated potatoes and carrots with 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 large egg, 1/4 cup finely chopped yellow onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Mix everything thoroughly until just combined.
  6. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the hot skillet, leaving some space between each pancake.
  8. Gently flatten each spoonful to form thin pancakes.
  9. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
  10. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and cooked through.
