4 lg. russet potatoes
1 egg, beaten
1 1/2 tbsp. flour
2 tbsp. cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Oil for frying

Peel potatoes and grate them. Put them in a large tea-towel and twist to remove moisture. Immediately put potatoes into a bowl with beaten egg, flour, cream, salt and pepper. (The potatoes will turn brown if not cooked immediately after grating). Mix well. Heat oil in large skillet. Put a couple of spoonsful into the hot oil and mash with spatula to form a pancake. Cook them over moderate heat until browned on both sides. Put them in a warm oven until they're all cooked. Serve hot.
