- Into the raw potato mix in about one ounce of plain flour and 1-2 eggs so the mixture holds a good pancake shape
- Season and stir well to blend all the ingredients
- Heat a little fat or oil in a large frying pan
- When the fat is hot place large spoonfuls of the potato mixture on the pan and spread out evenly and thinly
- Cook on each side for four to five minutes until golden and crisp on each side
- Drain on kitchen paper
A Smacznego!
