My children, who swore they didn't like potato pancakes, loved these. They even begged me to make a second batch. My husband raved and said they were very gourmet. Thank you for the great recipe! Added this to my recipe box!

This is an outstanding recipe! Other than using the juice from just half a lemon, I followed the recipe exactly and the potato pancakes were delicious! I also soaked the shredded potatoes in ice water (no lemon and it removed enough starch to make them very crispy, yet still creamy inside.

I will be sharing this recipe and making these again. I heeded some earlier comment suggestions and dunked my shredded potatoes (I used 3 small potatoes for 4 medium-sized cakes in cold water mixed with just a dash of lemon juice. I followed the rest of the recipe to a tee (except I just used a few tablespoons olive oil and 1 T butter for frying, and they turned out great!

I LOVE potato pancakes and so does my oldest but my little one and husband dont really care for them. This was my first time making potato pancakes and they were very easy. End result...They ALL loved them! Was asked to make them again by my husband who could take or leave any other potato pancake.....Thanks for such an awesome recipe!!!!

The recipe looks good and I cannot wait to try it this weekend. While reading the reviews I am noticing that people are reading this recipe and think that this will make 4 to 6 servings, while the recipe states that 1 large russet potato will make 4 to 6 CAKES. For the 2 of us, I'll be doubling the recipe.

I only put tad of lemon juice to stop the potatoes from browning...I also served them with sour cream. They were really good!

I'm glad I read through all the comments because I think Alison was correct that the recipe meant to say more than one potato for the whole recipe. Still, what a great recipe! Crispy on the outside.. creamy and delicious on the inside!

The basic recipe is fine however you should use more than one potato, less lemon and it is best if you grate the potatoes without the onion, rinse and drain WELL then add the onion and other ingredients. Also a really great addition to this recipe is grated parmesan, gives a little extra flavor and texture.

We really loved them! My husband had eaten potato pancakes for breakfast several times at a restaurant that served a "Denver Type" mixture (chopped green peppers, onions and ham on top and then topped by an egg. I did this and it was delicious, and then for a snack this afternoon we had them with applesauce, both were super duper yummy. Only thing different is they needed a little more cooking time, potatoes seemed not quite done in the alloted time. Loved the flavors!!
