Jeans homemade potato pancake recipe.
 |
Jean says: She has two ways to make potato pancakes. One is the fast way. The fast way is when making mashed potatoes for dinner-she makes extras for pancakes the next day. Fast potato pancakes-Mashed potatoes (6 potatoes) 1 egg 3 tablespoons flour salt to taste 1/3 cup onion (if desired) 1/4 cup butter (for fry pan or skillet) Put all ingredients together except butter in bowl and mix (I use my hands). Shape into patties. Place in 1/4 cup hot buttered or greased fry pan or skillet. Cook over medium heat, turning once until golden brown. Jean's from scratch making potato pancakes. 2 pounds potatoes (about 6 medium) boiled, and shredded 1 egg 1/3 cup finely chopped onion (if desired) 3 tablespoons flour 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup margarine or butter Beat egg in small mixer bowl until thick and yellow colored. Mix in potatoes, onion, flour and salt. Heat margarine in 12-inch skillet over medium heat until melted. Shape potatoes mixture into 8 pancakes: place in skillet. Cook over medium heat, turning once, until golden brown. |
