Ingredients
  • 1 lb. Russet potatoes, peeled (about 2 medium)
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • ½ c. all-purpose flour
  • 1½ tsp. kosher salt, divided
  • Canola oil, for frying
  • 2 tbsp. freshly chopped chives
  • Applesauce, for serving
  • Sour cream, for serving
Instructions
  1. Using the medium holes on box grater, grate potatoes. Transfer to a bowl of ice water until ready to use. Using a clean dish towel, squeeze out as much liquid as possible, or let drain in fridge overnight.
  2. In a large bowl, combine potatoes with eggs, flour, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  3. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat about ⅛” oil until shimmering. To test if oil is hot enough, sprinkle with some flour. If flour bubbles and dissolves immediately, oil is ready.
  4. Add a few spoonfuls of potato mixture to the oil and pat down to flatten. Fry until crispy and golden, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then sprinkle with remaining salt.
  5. Serve with chives, applesauce, and sour cream.
