How To Make crispy potato pancakes

Step 1

Pat potatoes completely dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, stir eggs and flour together until smooth. Add onion, salt and nutmeg. Stir in grated potatoes.

Step 2

Heat 1/2- inch oil in a heavy skillet until almost smoking. Drop 1/4 cup portions (or 1/2 cup portions for larger pancakes) of potato batter into oil. Do not flatten.
Step 3

Turn after 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Flatten slightly and cook an additional 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
