- 1 ¾ cups boiling water
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructies
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the hash brown potato mix with the boiling water.
- Let it stand until the liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Drain any excess liquid.
- Pour the vegetable oil over the drained potatoes and toss until evenly coated.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add the flour and salt, stirring until well combined.
- Stir the egg mixture into the potatoes until evenly distributed.
- Heat a medium-hot griddle or skillet and lightly grease with oil or non-stick spray.
- Spoon about 1/4 cup of the potato mixture onto the griddle, spreading it out into a 4-inch round pancake.
- Repeat with the remaining mixture, leaving some space between each pancake.
- Cook the pancakes for 3 to 4 minutes on one side until golden brown, then carefully flip them over and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until the other side is also golden brown.
- Once cooked, transfer the potato pancakes to a serving platter and serve them hot, optionally garnished with sour cream, applesauce, or your preferred toppings.
