Grate the peeled potatoes and onion using the fine side of a box grater or a food processor. Place the grated mixture in a cheesecloth or clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Discard the liquid.
💡 Conseils de pro: Squeezing out the liquid is crucial for crispy dranniki. - 2
In a large bowl, combine the squeezed potato-onion mixture, eggs, flour, salt, and pepper. Mix well until just combined. Do not overmix.

Heat about 2-3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be shimmering but not smoking.

Drop spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the hot oil, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon to form pancakes about 3-4 inches in diameter. Do not overcrowd the pan.
💡 Conseils de pro: Work in batches to ensure even cooking and crispiness. - 5
Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Add more oil as needed between batches.

Remove the dranniki from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve immediately.
💡 Conseils de pro: Keep cooked dranniki warm in a low oven while frying the rest. - 7
Serve hot dranniki with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of fresh dill.
💡 Conseils de pro
- ✓For extra flavor, you can add a clove of minced garlic to the potato mixture.
