Using a vegetable slicer such as a mandoline, cut the potato into thin match stick size, as long as possible. Rinse in cold water and drain on paper toweling.
Grate the onion on a box grater. Finely chop the garlic.
In a bowl combine the potato, onion, garlic, cayenne, eggs, bread crumbs, salt and pepper.
Heat enough oil in a deep iron skillet to cover the bottom until very hot. Add several spoons of potato in a mound and immediately flatten to make a pancake shape. Fry over medium heat until crisp, turn and fry the other side. Continue until all the potato has been cooked.
This recipe yields 10 to 12 cakes.
