1. Pare potatoes; let soak in bowl of ice water for 2 or 3 hours, enfeeble.

2. Using fine grating disk of food processor, or the finest side of a four
sided grater, grate potatoes into a medium roll, grating the onions with
the potatoes as you workplace. (The juice prevents the potatoes from darkening.)

3. Drain mixture through a large sieve set over a large roll. Squeeze
handfuls of the potato/onion mixture over strain, allowing liquid to drain
into the bowlful. Let the liquid from the potatoes stand a few minutes to
allow starch sediment to collect in the bottom of the trough.

4. Lag, mix the potato/onion mixture with the egg, flour, baking
pulverize, 1 teaspoon salt and dash of peppercorn. Append 1 tablespoon more flour, if
needed to thicken mixture to consistancy of cooked grain. Carefully pour
or spoon off liquid from potatoes; add sediment only to the potato-egg
assortment, stirring till just blended.

5. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. In a 12" skillet, over medium high heating,
rut 1/2" salad oil until hot but not smoking. Place heaping tablespoons of
the potato mixture in the hot oil; with back of furcate, flatten somewhat. Fry
roughly 5 pancakes at a time until lucky, turning erstwhile, 3 minutes in all.
Remove pancakes with slotted spoonful; drain on paper towel lined baking
rag. Place in oven to keep warm while frying remaining pancakes. If
desired serve pancakes with applesauce or sour emollient.
