Golden crispy potato pancakes are a great dish for lunch. But if you add greens and sour cream to them, the treat will become much tastier and more aromatic.
But how to cook potato pancakes so that they always turn out great? Here you need to know a few tricks that will allow you to surprise your household with the best dishes.
Trick 1
If you want to get thin and crispy potato pancakes, it is better to choose white varieties of potatoes with a low amount of starch.
For more fluffy and juicy potato pancakes, you need to take yellow varieties.
Trick 2
You need to grate the potatoes using a grater. You shouldn't use a blender, otherwise you'll end up with a dry and tough treat.
Trick 3
Excess moisture should be removed from the grated potatoes, but do not wait until it is released in large quantities.
Trick 4
It is advisable not to add eggs to the dough. This will deprive the potato pancakes of their pleasant crunch and they will lose their airiness.
Trick 5
Before frying, it is better to grease the frying pan with lard rather than butter. The dish will turn out more ruddy and appetizing.
