Recipe - potato pancakes

Potato pancakes

1 pound of potatoes, peeled
2 eggs, beaten
2 tbsp flour
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
oil for frying

Grate the peeled raw potatoes, place in a bowl. Add the flour, beaten eggs and salt and pepper, set aside. Heat oil in frying pan, when warm place a dollop of potato mixture into oil, spread out. When the bottom side of pancake is crispy brown, flip it over to cook on other side. When down to a crisp golden brown on each side, remove from pan. These pancakes are very good as is, or with a little bit of ketchup. I know some people also enjoy this with applesauce, but I haven't quite gotten used to that. This is really excellent for brunch or as a light lunch.
