Instructions:
Grate and Squeeze the Potatoes:
Grate the potatoes using a box grater or food processor.

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Scoop the potato mixture by heaping tablespoons and flatten them slightly with a spatula to form pancakes.
Don’t overcrowd the pan, cook the pancakes in batches if needed.

Drain and Serve:
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve hot with your favorite toppings like sour cream, applesauce, smoked salmon, or salsa.
