Ingredients

• 5 medium Potatoes
• 0.75 cups Flour
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.5 pounds Ground beef
• 1 small Onion
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons Parsley (optional, chopped)
• 0.5 cups Sour cream (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and grate the potatoes using the small holes of a box grater. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.

Step 2

Transfer the grated potatoes to a large bowl. Add the flour, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to combine and form a dough-like consistency.

Step 3

In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the finely diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until soft and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the ground beef to the skillet. Stir in the paprika and cook until the meat is browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 5

Divide the potato mixture into 8 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a small pancake shape in your hands. Place a tablespoon of the beef filling in the center of each pancake, then fold the edges over to encase the filling and shape into a patty.

Step 6

Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, place the stuffed potato pancakes in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Repeat with the remaining pancakes.

Step 8

Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm with a dollop of sour cream.
