Grate the potatoes and onion, then squeeze out their liquid with a clean cloth.
Let the squeezed liquid stand for 5 minutes and separate the potato starch that settles at the bottom.
Mix the potatoes, onion, starch, eggs, flour, salt, and black pepper.
Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
Spoon in portions of the mixture, press them down, and fry the first side for 4 minutes.
Turn the potato pancakes and fry the second side for 3 more minutes.
Drain on paper towels for 1 minute and serve with yogurt and applesauce if desired.
💡 Tip: Squeeze the grated potatoes very well in a cloth; letting the starch settle and adding it back to the batter increases crispness.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Top with strained yogurt or applesauce if desired and serve on a hot breakfast plate.
