How To Make pap's potato pancakes

• Step 1
  Mix eggs and seasoning together - slightly beat eggs - set aside In a large bowl combine potatoes, green pepper, and onion Sprinkle flour over potato mixture, stir until well combined Stir in egg mixture Heat a couple of tablespoons of oil in frying pan Drop potato mixture in frying pan, slightly flatten Fry until golden brown and crispy on each side (about 3-4 minutes on each side) Remove from pan, drain on paper towels Serve hot
• Step 2
  *Since this recipe makes a good bit I preheat the oven to 350 and after draining pancakes on paper towels I place them on a rack-lined baking sheet to keep crisp and warm until I'm ready to serve. However, I think they are best eaten right out of the skillet.
• Step 3
  ***If you don't want to end up with a whole lot of juice in the bottom of your bow of potatoesl - shred your potatoes and place in a strainer, using your hands to squeeze out as much of the liquid you can before mixing the ingredients together. I like to let the starch settle in the bottom of a bowl (from the squeezing liquid out), then I pour off the water and stir the starch back into the potatoes before adding the flour and eggs. Or.... you can cheat and buy a bag of shredded potatoes at the grocery store.
