flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: cornstarch

Whole wheat flour adds fiber; cornstarch is often cheaper.

Grate the potatoes and onions into a bowl.

Squeeze out excess moisture from the grated mixture.

In a separate bowl, beat the egg and mix in the flour, salt, pepper, and nutmeg powder.

Combine the potato-onion mixture with the egg mixture.

Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat.

Spoon the mixture into the pan, flattening it into pancakes.

Fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes each side.

Remove and drain on paper towels.

Serve hot with garlic sauce, applesauce, or yogurt.
