For extra flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of finely chopped onion or some grated Parmesan cheese to the batter. To keep the pancakes warm while you fry the remaining batches, place them on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 200°F (95°C). Serve these Bramboracky with a dollop of sour cream or a side of applesauce for a delightful contrast of flavors. Adjust the amount of flour depending on the moisture content of your potatoes. Some potatoes release more liquid than others. Leftover Bramboracky can be reheated in a skillet or oven, but they are best enjoyed fresh for optimal crispiness.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
15 mins
Peel and coarsely grate the potatoes. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This is crucial for achieving crispy pancakes. (Prep time: 15 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
Transfer the squeezed potatoes to a mixing bowl. Add the crushed garlic, caraway seeds, marjoram, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
03
Step
2 mins
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Pour the egg mixture into the potato mixture and stir until evenly combined. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
04
Step
3 mins
Gradually stir in the flour, mixing until you have a thick batter that is still pourable. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough pancakes. (Prep time: 3 minutes)
05
Step
5 mins
Heat about ¼ inch of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Ensure the oil is hot before adding the batter; test with a small piece of potato. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
06
Step
6 mins
Drop ¼ cupfuls of batter into the hot oil, flattening each pancake slightly with the back of a spoon or spatula. Fry for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. (Cook time: 6-8 minutes per batch)
07
Step
2 mins
Remove the fried pancakes from the skillet and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
08
StepRepeat the frying process with the remaining batter, ensuring the oil remains hot and the skillet doesn't get overcrowded. Serve immediately while hot and crispy. (Cook time: Varies)
