Directions

1. Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

3. Step 3: Mix the Ingredients
4. Step 4: In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, chopped onion, minced garlic, eggs, flour, marjoram, salt, and black pepper. Stir well until the mixture forms a thick, consistent batter.

6. Step 6: In a large frying pan, heat a generous amount of oil over medium heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
7. Step 7: Fry the Pancakes
8. Step 8: Spoon portions of the batter into the pan, flattening each into a thin pancake. Fry until golden brown and crispy on one side, then flip and cook the other side until equally golden and crispy.
9. Step 9: Drain & Serve
10. Step 10: Transfer the cooked pancakes onto a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve immediately while hot, with sour cream, garlic dip, or as a side dish.
