So I grated a few potatoes, rinsed and pressed them to reduce moisture, and put them in a bowl.<\/p>\n<p>One of the things I like to do with potatoes for pancakes is to grate them in two different ways &#8211; because potatoes are great at binding themselves together (heyo starch) &#8211; so I use the biggest side on a box grater for three potatoes and then the finest side for one.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-5895 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/meshell.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/potato-pancakes-min-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"601\" srcset=\"https:\/\/meshell.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/potato-pancakes-min-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/meshell.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/potato-pancakes-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/meshell.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/potato-pancakes-min-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/meshell.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/potato-pancakes-min-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/meshell.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/potato-pancakes-min.jpg 1616w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Then I add about 1\/4-1\/2 cup of chickpea flour, salt, pepper, and a touch of garlic or onion powder &#8211; followed by a 1\/8 of a cup of the pancake batter put into a hot pan.
