Kittencal'S Crispy Potato And Green Onion Pancakes (Latkes) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 lbs red potatoes, peeled
1 large egg, lightly beaten
3 tablespoons flour (or use matzo meal)
2 -4 teaspoons seasoning salt (or to taste, or use white salt to taste)
2 teaspoons black pepper (or to taste)
4 -6 green onions, finely chopped (use as much as you like I use lots!)
3 -4 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped (good to add in!) (optional)
oil (for frying)

Preparation

Grate the potatoes using a the coarse side if the grater or use a food processor.
Place into a large bowl and cover with cold water.
Allow the grated potatoes to soak for at least a minimum of 8 hours or even up to 2 days.
Using your hands firmly squeeze handfuls of the grated potatoes to remove as much liquid as possible, then place in a large mixing bowl.
Add in egg, flour, seasoned salt and pepper; mix well with a wooden spoon, then add in the green onions and parsley (if using).
Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat.
Place a heaping tablespoonful of the potato mixture into the hot skillet and using a fork, flatten slightly (the edges will be uneven!).
Sprinkle with more salt if desired.
Place only a few pancakes in the pan, careful not to over crowd.
Cook until golden and crisp on both sides adding in more oil if needed).
Repeat with remaining potato mixture.
DELICIOUS!
