Preparation
- Step 1
Peel the potato and shred it into long strands onto a clean tea towel. Roll up the potatoes in the towel and twist over the sink to extract as much liquid as possible. Place the potatoes in a bowl. Add the garlic, pepper and salt and toss with a fork until mixed. Sprinkle with the flour and toss again.
- Step 2
Pour enough oil into a large nonstick skillet to cover the bottom and heat until almost smoking. Making 4 pancakes at a time, spoon a tablespoon of the potato mixture into the skillet and flatten into lacy 3-inch rounds with the back of a fork. Fry until crisp and golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels and keep warm while frying the remaining pancakes.
