Potato Pancakes

Recipe Instructions Thirty minutes before serving, mix potatoes, onion, salt, flour, pepper and egg in a medium bowl. Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of water bounces on the surface. Place 2 tablespoons oil in the skillet. Make pancake shapes from potato mixture. Fry, turning once, until both sides are crisp and golden, about 5 minutes on each side. Drain thoroughly on paper towels. Place on a warm platter and serve with hot or cold applesauce. This recipe yields 4 servings. Description: "Simple and delicious, these side dish potatoes are especially good served with applesauce."
