Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Peel and grate the potatoes and onion. Squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
2. In a bowl, combine the grated potatoes and onion with egg, flour, salt, and pepper.
3. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat.
4. Spoon the potato mixture into the skillet, flattening each portion with a spatula.
5. Fry until golden brown on both sides, then drain on paper towels.
6. Serve hot with your favorite toppings such as sour cream or applesauce.
Pro Tip: Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the potato mixture to achieve a crispy texture. Avoid overcrowding the skillet to ensure even cooking.
Expert Tips for Success
– Use starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold for the best texture.
– Grate the potatoes using the coarse side of a box grater for the ideal consistency.
– Adjust the seasoning to suit your taste preferences, adding herbs or spices for a flavor boost.
– For a lighter version, you can bake the Kartoffelpuffer in the oven instead of frying them.
Variations and Substitutions
For a creative twist on the traditional recipe, consider adding grated cheese to the potato mixture for a cheesy flavor profile. You can also incorporate shredded vegetables like zucchini or carrots for added nutrition and color. Additionally, using gluten-free flour or almond flour can make the dish suitable for gluten-sensitive individuals.
