Potato Latkes

This recipe is per request from my friend Roxy. In Russia we call it "Draniki". I will post picture when I will be making them next time. Using same recipe, but using zucchini or squash instead of potatoes, you can make other vegetable pancakes. Here is a picture of squash pankaces that I've made before.

5 grated potatoes
1 grated onion
1 egg
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoons salt
Olive oil for frying

 I like to grate my potatoes and onion in blender, its so much easier then using a standard grater. In a medium bowl stir the potatoes, onion, eggs, flour and salt together. Heat the olive oil in skillet until hot. Place large spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the hot oil, they should look like small pancakes. Brown on one side, turn and brown on the other. Serve hot with sour cream.
