Reiberdatschi, also known as Kartoffelpfannkuchen, is a traditional Austrian dish that has been a staple in Austrian cuisine for centuries. These vegan Potato Pancakes are made from grated potatoes, onions, garlic and spices, which are then pan-fried to a golden crisp. They are typically served as a side dish, but can also be eaten as a main dish. Reiberdatschi is a versatile and comforting dish that can be enjoyed any time of the year and can be served with various toppings such as vegan sour cream or applesauce, making it a perfect meal for vegetarians and vegans.

Ingredients:

• 2 lbs of potatoes, peeled and grated
• 1 onion, grated
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon of salt
• 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
• Oil for frying

Instructions:

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, grated onion, garlic, flour, salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
2. Heat a skillet over medium heat, and add oil to the skillet.
3. Using a large spoon, form pancakes out of the potato mixture and place them in the skillet.
4. Fry the pancakes for about 3–4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
5. Remove the pancakes from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
6. Repeat the process until all of the potato mixture is used.
7. Serve the pancakes hot with a side of sautéed vegetables, or topped with vegan sour cream or apple sauce
