Step cooking
- Chop one onion very finely and pour boiling water over it. This will remove the bitterness and make the onion softer.
- Grate half a kilogram of potato.
- If you use meat in a piece, then twist it in a meat grinder into minced meat.
- Add strained onions and 300 grams of minced meat to a bowl of potatoes and mix the ingredients thoroughly.
- Pour salt, black pepper to taste, 1 tablespoon of potato starch and beat in an egg. Stir again.
- Put a frying pan on the fire, pour refined vegetable oil into it and let it warm up well.
- Spread a tablespoon of potato and meat in a skillet and fry over medium heat on each side until golden, crisp. The fire should not be strong, because the potato pancakes will already be fried on the outside, and the raw ones will remain inside.
- Spread the finished cakes on a plate covered with a paper towel to remove excess fat. As a result, potato pancakes are juicy, tender and tasty. They are covered with a delicious crust, and inside they remain soft and not clogged with flour at all.
Ways of decorating and serving
The finished dish is best for a morning meal, but you can also eat it for lunch and dinner. Serve taken with sour cream or sour cream and garlic sauce, sprinkled with chopped herbs. Another good dressing option is sunflower oil mixed with garlic and salt squeezed through a press.
It is quite possible to cook this dish even on a festive table, since the recipe is not quite classic, and guests will certainly be delighted with meat pancakes. In this case, it is best to pour sour cream in a separate bowl with a spoon and give each guest the opportunity to collect the desired amount on their own.
