  • 3

    Peel and grate onion(s) using the small side of the grater to puree the onions or use a food processor.

  • 4

    Combine all of the ingredients except oil into a stainless steel bowl to prevent discoloration, and mix thoroughly to a fairly loose batter.

  • 5

    If the mixture is still wet, add a little more flour.

  • 6

    Heat 2 or 3 Tblsp. of oil or bacon fat in a nonstick skillet.

  • 7

    Take a palm size of the mixture and form a small pancake and place into the hot skillet and fry until brown, a few minutes on each side.

  • 8

    Place completed pancakes on paper towels to drain.

  • 9

    Add more oil or fat as necessary and fry pancakes until batter is done.
