1
Peel and grate vegetables
Box grater

Peel the russet potatoes and yellow onion, then grate them on the fine holes of a box grater into a large mixing bowl; work quickly to limit browning.

Keep fingers clear of the box grater while grating the potatoes and onion.

2 Pound potatoes
8 Ounce yellow onion
2
Drain excess liquid

Mix the batter
Large mixing bowl
Measuring cups and spoons

Add the large egg, all-purpose flour, whole milk, and fine salt to the grated mixture; stir until a thick, spoonable batter forms.

2 Tablespoon whole milk
1 1/2 Teaspoon salt

Start frying pancakes
Spatula
Large skillet
Measuring cups and spoons

Heat 1/4 cup canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering but not smoking; drop in 1/4-cup portions of batter, 3 to 4 at a time, and flatten into thin pancakes.

Add batter gently to hot oil to reduce splattering.

1/2 Cup canola oil
5
Fry until crisp

Fry for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the pancakes are deep golden brown and crisp at the edges, adjusting the heat as needed.

Do not leave the skillet unattended while frying.
