Method

1 / 10
  1. 1. Prepare the Potatoes

  2. Start by peeling and finely grating the potatoes. To ensure extra crispiness, use a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out as much moisture as possible.

  3. 2. Mix the Ingredients

  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, chopped onion, minced garlic, eggs, flour, marjoram, salt, and black pepper. Stir well until the mixture forms a thick, consistent batter.

  5. 3. Heat the Oil

  6. In a large frying pan, heat a generous amount of oil over medium heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking.

  7. 4. Fry the Pancakes

  8. Spoon portions of the batter into the pan, flattening each into a thin pancake. Fry until golden brown and crispy on one side, then flip and cook the other side until equally golden and crispy.

  9. 5. Drain & Serve

  10. Transfer the cooked pancakes onto a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve immediately while hot, with sour cream, garlic dip, or as a side dish.
