8 TABLESPOONS + some sugar
10 tablespoons (100 ml) Apple juice or water
1 Cinnamon stick
1 kg floury potatoes
1 medium onion
1 Egg (Gr. M)
1-2 TABLESPOONS Potato starch
7-10 Tbsp Salt
7-10 Tbsp Pepper
75 g clarified butter

Directions

1
Peel, quarter and core the apples. Cut apples into small pieces. Bring to the boil with 8 tbsp. sugar, apple juice and cinnamon stick. Simmer covered for 6-10 minutes. Let applesauce cool down. Remove cinnamon stick.
2
Peel, wash and finely grate the potatoes. Drain the potato mixture well in a fine sieve, collecting the starchy liquid. Peel and grate the onion and add to the potatoes. Carefully drain off the liquid that has been collected.
3
Add the potato starch to the potatoes. Add egg and additional potato starch (depending on how starchy the potatoes are). Season the potato buffer mixture with salt and pepper.

Smooth a little and fry for 3-4 minutes on each side. Drain finished buffers on kitchen paper. Serve immediately. Arrange potato pancakes with some sugar and applesauce on plates.
