1. | In a heavy skillet, fry the thickly sliced bacon until crisp. Once done, transfer the bacon to a warm plate and reserve 1 tablespoon of bacon fat in the skillet. |
2. | Peel the russet potatoes and coarsely grate them. Place the grated potatoes in a paper towel and squeeze out any excess moisture. |
3. | In a mixing bowl, whisk together milk, egg, flour, and salt to create a batter. Gently fold in the grated potatoes into the batter. |
4. | Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Using a 1/3 cup measuring cup, scoop the batter onto the pan and flatten each pancake to a 3-inch diameter. Fry the pancakes for a few minutes on each side until they turn golden brown. |
5. | Transfer the cooked pancakes to a platter in a warm oven to keep them heated while preparing the rest. |
6. | Serve the potato pancakes alongside the crispy bacon and lingonberries, if available. Enjoy! |
