Ingredients:
3 potatoes (~300g), peeled and grated: The base of your pancakes, providing texture and substance.
Parsley, chopped: Adds freshness and color. Use according to your taste preferences.

Chili pepper flakes: For a spicy kick. Adjust the amount based on how hot you like your food.
Black pepper: To taste, for added depth and flavor.
2 tablespoons rice flour (or wheat flour): Helps to thicken the batter, giving the pancakes a nice structure. Rice flour will make them slightly lighter and gluten-free.
