Cooking secrets

  • To prevent the potato pancakes from darkening, be sure to add a grated onion to the dough.
  • If the pancakes turn out to be rubbery, you have added too much flour; if the pancakes are too thin, there is too much excess liquid in the dough.
  • If you want to make pancakes without eggs, add a little more flour to the dough. Approximate proportions: 4 tbsp of flour for 800 g of potatoes.
  • To prevent the pancakes from falling apart, you can periodically pour off the liquid that will form.
  • To prevent the pancakes from burning and being raw inside, cook them over low heat under a lid.
