Potato Pancakes

Contributed by: Mary Stankiewicz

Ingredients:
About 8 potatoes
1-2 eggs
2 onions (1 if you like less onion)
flour
salt and pepper

Directions:
Shred potatoes and onion in a food processor.
Using cheese cloth, drain all liquid out of shredded potatoes and onions.
Make sure to really squeeze it good. Preheat your oil on the stove.
Make sure to have enough oil that there is at least 1/4 inch in the pan.
(After every 2 or so rounds of cooking, you will need to add more oil.
Make sure every time you add oil, you let it heat up before adding the pancakes) Next add 1 egg, a couple tablespoons of flour and salt and pepper. Mix this well.
You may need to add another egg or more flour to get the right consistency.
You want to be able to make a patty out of the mixture, pat it down, and have it be able to stay together. Place each patty into the hot oil. Let brown on each side.
Place onto some paper towels to dry and remove excess oil.
Serve with salt, pepper, applesauce, or your choice!
