Ali loves potato pancakes

Grate the potatoes and wrap in a fine dishtowel or heavy paper towels and squeeze as much liquid out as you can. Mix all ingredients together and fry as you would pancakes. Top with applesauce or chives and sour cream. You can substitute part of the potatoes with sweet potatoes, carrots or other root vegetable to make this old world recipe "new age." A great breakfast or dinner. This recipe feeds about six.
