Ingredients

800g potatoes (6-7 medium sized potatoes)
5 garlic cloves (grated)
2 eggs
½ cup of plain flour
¼ cup of milk
1tsp marjoram
1tsp oregano
Salt & pepper
Vegetable oil for cooking

Instructions

1. Peel and grate potatoes, once grated squeeze as much of the juice out as possible. If potatoes look a little brown you can quickly rinse and squeeze dry again through a strainer.
2. To the potato add the garlic and herbs and
3. Mix eggs, milk and salt & pepper and pour into bowl.
4. While combining slowly add in sifted flour
5. Mixture should be firm but not dry (not too runny). If too dry you can add another egg (or a little more milk) if to runny simply add a little more flour.
6. You should be able to roll a portion of the mixture into a gooey ball a little smaller than a tennis ball.
7. Add oil to a heavy base frying pan heating to a medium heat. Drop a little of the potato mixture in to test. Once oil is heated add a quality to the pan and flatten out to roughly 1-1.5 cm.
8. Fry on each side between 3 and 4 minutes, until golden brown. Then place on paper towel to remove any excess oil.
9. Serve warm with favourite topping – or no topping at all.

Czech Potato Pancake Tips.
• Russet potatoes work well for this dish.
• I don’t use a lot of salt in the initial mixture preferring to add salt to taste after serving. But that’s a personal preference. My memory as a kid was a strong garlic and salt taste.
• Make sure oil is medium, too high and the pancakes will burn on the outside and not cook through, too low and the pancakes will take longer to cook and soak up too much of the oil.
• The perfect pancake is golden brown on both sides with a the edges quite crispy.
