Crispy Potato Onion Fritters

1Preparing the Potatoes (2 large) and Onions Peel and grate the potatoes (2 large). Finely chop the onion (1).

2Creating the Fritter Batter In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes (2 large), chopped onion (1), flour, cornstarch (¼ cup), baking powder (1 teaspoon), paprika (½ teaspoon), garlic powder (½ teaspoon), salt (½ teaspoon), and black pepper (¼ teaspoon). Mix well to form a thick batter. Add water (½ cup) gradually and mix until the batter has a pancake-like consistency.

3Frying the Fritters Heat the oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, making small fritters. Fry until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally for even cooking, about 3-4 minutes per side.

4Serve and Garnish Remove the fritters from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot and crispy as a delightful snack or side dish.
