Potato pancakes with parsley

Lietuviška versija čia.

I always wanted to try pancakes from coarsely grated potatoes and here it is... :)

The taste reminded more of  the baked potatoes, when they are cut finely and roasted well.

You will need:

• 10 potatoes
• 1 big onion
• 1 clove of garlic
• 1 tablespoon of salt or to taste
• ground black pepper
• 1 egg
• flour, about a handful
• a bunch of parsley
• oil for baking

Preparation:

1. Grate potatoes coarsely, wait for about 15 minutes till the water starts to separate.
2. Mince or crush the onion and garlic.
3. Squeeze the water out of the potatoes. I used the stiff gauze. It can also be done by hand.
4. Add the onion, garlic, salt, pepper, egg and finely chopped parsley into potatoes, mix. Add a little bit of flour, just that it would be enough to hold the potato together.
5. Bake in a pan with oil.

Enjoy!

Here my potatoes were grated very coarsely. I don't have the middle size grating disc, so next time I will also try to grate them finely.
