Step 2: At this point, you can put some oil in the pan and get it heating up on medium heat. You don't need to completely cover the pancakes and deep-fry them.

It works, but if you're doing a large batch, your arm may get very tired. My parents typically use a food processor with the grating attachment, but whatever works for you. Then crack an egg into the bowl and toss in a little flour. |
