    If you mix the first 4 ingredients together where does the flour and oil go? I am assuming flour gets mixed in with the potatoes and oil goes in the pan? - 9/1/11

    Yes you are correct. I'm sorry i thought it was all written properly. I just copied it from a recipe so I better go check the recipe again. Thanks for the correction.
