Bulviu Blynai

Ingredients

 * 2 lbs. potatoes
 * 1/4 cup potato starch (1/2 cup flour can be substituted)
 * 1 small onion
 * 2 eggs
 * Salt, pepper
 * Oil for frying

Directions
I use my blender. I have never peeled the potatoes or chopped the onions. I just cut them in chunks and throw them in the blender. #To date, no one has who has eaten my blynai has noticed that I don't peel the potatoes or grate them with my fingers until the traditional drops of blood fall in the mixture! The choice is yours.
 * 1) Traditionally, the potatoes are peeled and grated and the onion chopped fine. Then, the egg/salt/pepper are mixed in.
 * 1) Once you have the batter prepared, heat your griddle or frying pan. Add a generous amount of cooking oil. Drop by spoons-full or pour pancake mixture on the hot griddle. Fry until golden on both sides.
 * 2) Place cooked blynai on paper towels or newspaper briefly to absorb the excess grease. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and/or applesauce.
