How to Make Potato Pancakes Polish
- Finely grate 2 pounds of potatoes and rinse with cold water 3 times until the water runs clear.
- Add the grated potatoes and 1 medium chopped onion to a large bowl. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic.
- Thoroughly drain the potato mixture, pressing out as much moisture as possible using paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. This step is crucial for crispy pancakes!
- Add 2 large egg yolks, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley.
- Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
- Gently fold in 2 large egg whites, being careful not to overmix.
- Heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. (Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning).
- For each pancake, drop a heaping tablespoon of the mixture into the hot oil and press down gently with a spatula to flatten slightly.
- Cook until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Remove pancakes from skillet and place on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve immediately, seasoned with additional salt and pepper to taste, alongside your favorite sour cream or applesauce.
