Golden and crispy potato pancakes are a dish that many adults and children love. The treat is perfect for a hearty and tasty lunch.

You can make potato pancakes even more appetizing by adding sour cream, some greens and fresh vegetables.

But first, you need to figure out how to properly prepare these potato pancakes.

Experienced cooks claim that you need a minimum of ingredients for the dough.

The potatoes need to be grated on a fine grater. The onion should be done in a similar way.

There may be some vegetable juice left in the bowl; it should be drained.

Then you should break an egg into this mass.

If desired, you can add a little salt and pepper, but the spices should not overpower the taste of the main vegetable.

Many housewives argue about whether it is necessary to add flour.

You can refuse the ingredient, but if you want the treat to last longer and not darken, then you can use flour in cooking. But it is important not to overdo it. For one and a half kilograms of potatoes, only 2-3 spoons of flour are enough.

There is no need to add sour cream or other ingredients to the potato pancake dough itself.
