Vegan potato pancakes

Description

The potatoes for draniki should not be young, but neither should they be limp. Young potatoes release too much juice, resulting in a mushy texture. Do not squeeze out all the juice, nor add extra flour. Serve with a vegetarian sauce, or with fried onions and mushrooms.
