A typically german recipe, which is found without doubt on any fair. For me it stands for the south of Germany in particular and also Christmas time.

This is a recipe my grandmother has given me last year to try out on out "Taste of Culture" evening.

Time: ~25 minutes.
Difficulty: Easy



You will need:
  • 12 large potatoes
  • 3 onions
  • 8 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • Salt and Pepper (to season)
  • Oil (to fry)


Instructions:
  • Grate potatoes (with a big grater). Season with a lot of salt and less pepper.
  • Add eggs and diced onions.
  • Just about cover the potatoe-mass with flour (this will be about, more or less, 8 tablespoons of flour).
  • Scramble everything together very well.
  • Pour oil into a pan, which is on medium-high heat.
  • When the oil is hot and boiling (it will become bubbly), take a handful of the 'batter', place it into the oil and flatten it immediately with a spatula (or similar). The hash browns must swim in the oil.
  • Once they are golden brown - this may take about 3-5 minutes, flip them over. When both sides are ready (i.e. golden brown), place them aside on kitchen paper, which will absorb most of the oil.
Tip:
  • Traditionally, these are served with apple sauce.
  • I personally prefer eating eat with salmon!
  • Some people opt to put sour cream in top (which is a good choice too!) or even caviar. 
  • More examples, suggestions, ways and possibly inspirations can be found at the top of this recipe, in the image-'gallery'.


Just try it yourself! :)
