Potato Pancakes...

 It always makes me happy when I can actually make food that tastes good!!! The other day I found a recipe for Potato Pancakes, I thought they looked good, so I tried making them...I'd say they turned out rather well!!! And they are extremely easy to make!
 The recipe (my slightly changed version):
2 Large Potatoes
A teensy bit of Onion (=P)
1 Egg
Almost 2 TBSP Flour, and about 1/4 tsp Baking Powder
Salt and Pepper
Butter for frying
~~~
Peel and grate potatoes into large bowl. Remove excess moisture from potato by firmly squeezing handfuls of grated potato over kitchen sink.
Add grated onion, egg, flour, baking powder, pepper and salt to the potato and stir well to combine. 
Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Drop about 1/4-1/2 cup of mixture into pan and flatten slightly.
Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through.
Drain pancakes on paper towel and serve. Best right off the pan!!!
