Crispy Potato Pancakes

Boil the potatoes in their skins until they are half-cooked. After they have cooled, peel them and grate them on a small grater into a large bowl.

Add the starch, flour, egg, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and freshly crushed garlic. Quickly mix everything with a wooden spoon or by hand until you get a soft, but homogeneous dough.

On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a cylinder and cut it into equal pieces. Form round pancakes with your hands, about 8 cm in diameter and 6 mm thick.
