Results: Prior to this, I hadn’t had Potato pancakes so I was interested to see how they would turn out. I found it a little difficult to make them into a circular shape and keep them together without falling apart. The potatoes started to fall apart while in the oil and broke into small clumps, but I still got them as crispy as I needed. I could’ve added seasonings to add more flavor to the potato pancakes, but I also would recommend a condiment like sour cream to enjoy them with.
