Fresh Potato Pancakes with Sour Cream

Instructions

1. 1

   Peel the fresh potatoes and grate them using a coarse grater. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, eggs, all-purpose flour, and a pinch of salt and pepper (optional). Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated.

3. 3

   Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

4. 4

   Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture per pancake into the skillet, flattening each with a spatula to form small pancakes. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with the remaining mixture, adding more olive oil as needed.

5. 5

   Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

6. 6

   Serve the potato pancakes warm, topped with a dollop of homemade sour cream and a sprinkle of fresh chives.
