Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 1 small Yellow onion
- 2 large Eggs
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Peel and grate the potatoes using the large holes of a box grater. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step helps the pancakes become crispy.
Grate the onion and add it to the grated potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
Chop the fresh dill finely and add it to the mixture.
In the same bowl, crack in the eggs and stir to combine.
Add the all-purpose flour, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix well until the mixture binds together.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture into the skillet for each pancake, flattening them gently with the back of a spoon to form round discs.
Cook the pancakes for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown and crisp. Avoid overcrowding the skillet; work in batches if necessary.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serve hot with a dollop of sour cream (optional) and garnish with additional dill if desired.
