2 eggs |
1 small onion, grated |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
1 tablespoon flour |
shortening |
Directions:
1. Peel and shred potatoes.
2. (Should be 3 cups shredded) In a large bowl, beat eggs; stir in potatoes, onions and spices.
3. Sprinkle flour over top and stir in.
4. Melt enough shortening in a large heavy fry pan (about 1/4 inch deep) and heat.
5. Measure out about 1/4 cup potato mixture for each pancake.
6. Flatten slightly to make a thin pancake.
7. Fry slowly, turning once, 3 to 5 minutes, or until crisp and golden.
