Potato Cakes
Read my review of this recipe.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds potatoes, peeled
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups flour
Directions:
Boil the potatoes in a large pan until tender, then drain well and mash with butter and salt. Allow to col slightly. Turn out on a floured work surface and knead in about one third of its volume in flour, or as much as needed to make pliable dough. It will become easier to handle as the flour is incorporated, but avoid overmixing it. Roll out to a thickness of about 1/2 inch and cut into triangles.
Heat a griddle over medium heat and cook the potato cakes for about 3 to4 minutes on each side until browned. Serve hot with butter and sugar.
Makes 12 pancakes.
