Step 1:
How to make potato pancakes from raw potatoes? First, prepare the necessary ingredients. Sour cream is suitable for any fat content, depending on your preferences. Sunflower oil can be replaced with any other, including butter, lard or cooking fat.
Step 2:
Wash the potatoes, dry them with napkins and peel them. Grate the raw potatoes on a fine grater, drain the juice that has been released. To prevent the pancakes from getting too dry, do not squeeze the grated potatoes.
Step 3:
Add the raw egg to the grated potatoes and mix the mass.
Step 4:
Then add sour cream. Mix the mixture until smooth.
Step 5:
Sift the flour through a fine sieve to make it more airy and remove lumps, if any.
Step 6:
Mix the sifted flour in parts to the grated potatoes. You should get a thick, moderately viscous homogeneous mass.
Step 7:
Add salt and pepper to the potato mass and mix again.
Step 8:
Fry potato pancakes in a preheated frying pan in vegetable oil on both sides until golden brown. Serve the dish hot with sour cream or any unsweetened sauce.

Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.

Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it. How to determine the roasting temperature and choose the best oil for frying, and which is better not to use at all, read here .

You can check whether the oil has warmed up well enough in the pan in a simple way. Lower a wooden spatula into it. If bubbles have gathered around it, then you can start the frying process.
