  • 3 flax eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • ~1 cup avocado oil to fry
  • Chopped chives to serve

Instructions

    1. Peel the potatoes with a vegetable peeler. Use a box grater or a shredder attachment of your processor to grate the potatoes.
    2. Transfer into a bowl or colander that is prepared with a clean dish towel laid into it. Add the grated potatoes in the center of the towel. Squeeze the potatoes and drain the excess liquid.
    3. Finely grate the onion into a large bowl. Add the potato, flour, salt, and pepper, stir to combine.
    4. Prepare a large plate dusted with flour. With slightly wet hands, take two heaping tablespoons of the mixture and form it into a patty. Put it on a plate and repeat with the rest of the mixture. Dust them with a bit of flour. and press with your fingers until it’s flat.
    5. In a large frying pan or skillet over medium heat, heat avocado oil. Use a spatula to transfer the pancakes to the pan and press them down to make them flat. Don’t overcrowd the pan. Cook them for up to 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. To keep them hot before serving, put them in the warm oven (70 °C/160 °F), while you fry the next batch.
