directions

  • Pour potatoes into large bowl and thaw about 1 hour.
  • While still very cold add onion and egg's, stir in eggs until blended.
  • Stir in baking powder, flour and salt.
  • Heat some oil in frying pan over medium heat.
  • Shape 1/2 cup in hand and place in oil, pack and shape gently with spatula.
  • Cook 15 minutes on each side. I like to cook mine slowly to ensure potatoes are cooked and evenly browned. The less they are moved the less they tend to fall apart. Check them gently every 5 minutes When browned evenly carefully flip them, repack with spatula and cook 15 minutes more.
  • Drain on paper towel 1 minute.
  • Transfer to warm serving dish (I like to keep mine in the oven set at 200°F).
  • Do several at a time, don't overcrowd, you will need to do them in batches.
  • Serve with sour cream, applesauce or gravy.
