Main Ingredients- 2 medium potatoes
- 1 Tbsp frying powder (tempura flour)
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch
- Pinch of salt (adjust to taste)
- Cooking oil (generous amount)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the two potatoes thoroughly and peel them. Then, using a knife or a julienne peeler, cut the potatoes into very thin, fine strips. Thinly sliced potatoes will result in a crispier pancake.
Step 2
Add a pinch of salt to the julienned potatoes and gently mix them together. Let them sit for about 5 minutes. This process helps draw out excess moisture, contributing to a crispier texture, and seasons the potatoes for better flavor.
Step 3
After 5 minutes, lightly drain any water that has come out of the potatoes. Add 1 tablespoon of frying powder and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Mix well until the powder evenly coats the potato strips, forming a batter. If the batter seems too wet, you can add a little more frying powder or cornstarch.
Step 4
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a generous amount of cooking oil. Once the oil is hot, pour the prepared potato batter into the pan. Use a spoon or spatula to spread the batter thinly and evenly into a round shape. Spreading it thinly ensures even cooking and crispiness.
Step 5
Maintain medium heat and cook until the potato is golden brown on the bottom, then carefully flip it over. Cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes, or until it’s also a golden brown color. The pancake is ready when the potatoes look translucent and crispy. It’s best enjoyed immediately while hot!
