Ingredients with Measurements:
- 2 large potatoes, peeled and grated
- 1 small onion, grated
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 4 slices of Jausenwurst sausage
Special equipment needed:
- Grater
- Large mixing bowl
- Non-stick skillet
Step-by-step instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, grated onion, egg, flour, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
2. Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Using a spoon, scoop the potato mixture and form it into a small pancake. Place it gently into the hot oil. Repeat until the skillet is full, but do not overcrowd the pan.
