DIRECTIONS
- Boil potatoes in their skin until tender. Let cool. (Ideally, refrigerate overnight.) When cool, peel potatoes and grate them.
- Add flour and salt and mix thoroughly. You should end up with floury crumbles.
- Place the oil (or other fat) in a large frying pan over medium low heat. Gently fry and flip until the crumbles are nicely browned but not burned. Remove from the pan and serve with a dollop of sour cream on top. Tastes great with refreshing apple sauce.
