Yummy Potato Pancakes
This is a recipe that I have made since I was 13 years old. It does take some elbow-grease unless you use a fancy grater but I have always just pulled out an old-fashion grater and made sure I was careful of my fingertips and knuckles.
This is super for breakfast (make ahead and cook in AM). Great for lunch, snacks (hot or cold) and of course can be very European and service for dinner.
- 1 large onion, peeled and finely grated
- 6 large potatoes, washed, peeled and grated
- 3 eggs, slightly beaten
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
Combine the ingredients, mix and drop into a hot buttered/oiled skillet. Make sure heat is not too hot, medium to medium-low is great as you would like these pancakes to cook slowly and steady. They will take longer to cook then regular pancakes.
Great with applesauce, sour cream, cottage cheese or yogurt. For breakfast, add some apples and cinnamon or a fruit conserve. For lunch, add boiled hotdogs, sausages. For dinner, these are great additions to pork chops, pulled pork roast, spareribs and dinner sausages. For snacks, just wrap up and go. Perfect to nibble on during long car-rides and curbing that hungry edginess during trips out.
