Potato pancakes in the oven

Description

Why cook potato pancakes in the oven, you ask ... We answer: so that they become even tastier! Moreover, in this recipe, we suggest baking potato pancakes in the oven in combination with onions, previously fried with lard. The very process of their preparation is also slightly different from the traditional one: curdled milk or kefir is added to the potato mass. And if you want to make the taste of products even more expressive, replace wheat flour with rye! It will turn out unusual, but very tasty. And remember that potato pancakes must be eaten exceptionally hot, so immediately after the oven, arrange them on plates and serve immediately!

Step 4

Turn potato pancakes over and fry over medium heat on the other side. Put on a plate. In the same way, prepare potato pancakes from the remaining mass.
