I use the food processor to shred my potatoes, and add salt, pepper, egg and flour. Deep fry in oil until golden brown. Serve with sour cream...yummy.
Sorry I don't have the exact measurements, but my granny taught me how to make them, and she never measured anything. The closest I can get you is to make sure you use enough eggs and flour to hold them together. Also, squeeze out as much water from the potatoes as you can. I sometimes use garlic pepper in place of the salt & pepper, and add a little parsley.
