Draniki are considered to be a very simple dish, the preparation of which will not cause any difficulties for an advanced housewife.
However, some cooks get beautiful, golden-colored potato pancakes that are incredibly crispy.
But for others they fall apart, don’t look very appetizing, and the taste leaves much to be desired.
What subtleties will help you prepare the potato pancakes of your dreams?
Good potatoes
Try to cook the dish only from old-crop potatoes, choosing starchier varieties. Thanks to this, potato pancakes always turn out excellent.
Lemon juice
If you are afraid that the potato pancakes will darken, then it is worth adding just one spoon of sour juice. This will not affect the taste as a whole, but will help to preserve a good color.
Sour cream
This product is used for two purposes at once. Firstly, sour cream makes the taste of potato pancakes more pleasant and uniform. Secondly, it will be much easier for you to work with onions.
The role of eggs
If you think that potatoes already contain enough starch, you can skip the eggs altogether. In this case, they will be more delicious and of higher quality.
