  1. After grating the potatoes, using a towel, thoroughly wring out all the liquid from the potatoes.
  2. Place the drained potatoes into a large bowl with the grated onion, salt, eggs, and flour.

  1. Heat 3 tbsp oil in a skillet.
  2. Place ⅓ to ½ a cup of the mixture into the hot skillet.
  3. Fry for three to five minutes on each side, until they are golden.
  4. Briefly drain on paper towels.
