potato pancakes
I found this recipe at The Common Room blog. I’d never made potato pancakes before, but they sounded really good. I cooked up a batch on Sunday night and served them with our leftover Indian-style black eyed peas and rice. Both Dom and Bella ate them with relish. Bella ate almost two good-sized pancakes, and this after her regular dinner!
I reheated the last two potato pancakes in the toaster oven this morning and served them with cheesy scrambled eggs. They reheated well, nice and crispy, and were a wonderful side.
Ingredients
- 4 cups grated potatoes scrubbed well but not peeled
1 onion, diced small
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons flour
2 eggs
pepper to taste
vegetable oil
Directions
Scrub and grate the potatoes, put them in a sieve and press down, squeezing out the liquid.
Combine in a medium bowl with onion, salt, flour, and pepper. Lightly beat the eggs, and stir them into the mix.
Heat on medium-high enough oil to cover the bottom of a medium sized skillet. Quickly drop in a spoonful of the potato mixture and flatten it with the back of the spoon, making a pancake patty. Brown on one side, flip with spatula and brown lightly on the other.
