Step 1:

How do you make pan-fried potato zrazy with mushrooms? Gather the ingredients. Peel the potatoes and rinse off any dirt. You can use any mushrooms. I'm using wild mushrooms boiled for 25–30 minutes; you could use button mushrooms instead — just rinse them well.
Step 2:

Cover the peeled potatoes with water, set them over heat, and bring to a boil. Add a little salt. Cook until tender — the potatoes should turn soft.
Step 3:

Drain the hot water from the cooked potatoes and mash them with a potato masher. Then let them cool.
Step 4:

Peel the onion and rinse it in cold water. Finely chop the mushrooms and onion. Pour a little vegetable oil into a hot skillet and fry the mushrooms with the onion for 5–7 minutes. Salt them lightly. Let the mushroom filling cool.
Step 5:

Add the egg and flour to the cooled potatoes. Mix.
Step 6:

With wet hands, form a small patty and press a hollow into it. Put a little mushroom filling in the center. Top with more potato and seal the edges.
Step 7:

Shape the potato zrazy and roll them in breadcrumbs.
Step 8:

Fry the zrazy in a hot skillet with a little vegetable oil. Cook them over low heat for 2–3 minutes per side.
Step 9:

While they fry, you can make a sauce to go with them. Stir together sour cream, dill, and a little garlic.
Step 10:

The finished potato zrazy will turn an appetizing golden color with a crisp crust. Serve them hot, with the garlic sauce alongside. Enjoy!

Always wash eggs before using them, since even a shell that looks clean can carry harmful bacteria. It's best to use a food-safe wash and a brush.
Important! The wrong pan can ruin even the best recipe. For all the details on choosing the perfect pan for different dishes, see here.
There's an easy way to check whether the oil in the pan is hot enough: dip a wooden spatula into it. If bubbles gather around it, you're ready to start frying.
