A simple, crispy and delicious recipe with basic ingredients
Did you think you saw everything with the potatoes? Wait! Wait! This recipe has conquered the nets for its simplicity, its crispy texture and its incredible flavor. You only need potatoes, fresh vegetables and a pan to achieve a result that seems to be taken from a restaurant, but that you can easily make at home.
Ingredients:
3 large potatoes, peeled and grated
1 onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, peeled and grated
1 pepper (red or green), finely chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons flour (optional, to give more consistency)
1 egg (optional, to join the mixture)
Vegetable oil for frying
Preparation Step by Step:
Prepare the ingredients:
Peel and grate the potatoes and carrot. Place the grated potatoes in a clean cloth or strainer and squeeze all excess water. This is key to making them crunchy.
Mix everything:
In a large bowl, combine the squeezed potatoes, carrots, chopped onion and pepper. Add salt, pepper and if desired, flour and egg to help bind.
Form the pancakes or layers:
You can make small hash browns-like pancakes, or spread the mixture in the pan as a large, crunchy vegetable tortilla-like layer.
Fry over medium-high heat:
Heat a little oil in a pan and place the mixture. Cook 4–5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crunchy. If you make a large layer, you can turn it around with the help of a plate.
Serve hot:
Accompany with yogurt sauce, mayonnaise with garlic, ketchup or a fresh salad. It will be incredible!
Extra Tips:
You can add spices like paprika, turmeric or cumin for a different touch.
You can also bake them at 200 °C if you prefer a lighter version.
If you make them small, they work great as a snack or snack for children.
