Ingredients

Directions

  1. Peel the potatoes, wash them thoroughly with cold water, and drain.
  2. Grate the potatoes and onion together, then immediately drain off the excess water that collects.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the drained potatoes and onion with flour, cooked bacon bits, beaten eggs, black pepper, salt, and chopped parsley.
  4. Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well blended.
  5. Heat butter or margarine in a skillet over medium heat.
  6. Just before the butter begins to brown, drop 1/3 cup of the batter into the skillet for each pancake.
  7. Flatten each pancake slightly with a spatula to form a round shape.
  8. Cook until the bottoms are golden brown and crispy, then flip and cook the other side until done.
  9. Serve warm, preferably with sour cream.
