Also known as Potato Latkes, Potato Pancakes, Potato Patties...
Makes 3 basic cakes.
Ingredients...
1 Very Large Yukon Gold Potato
1 Egg
Garlic
Flour
Olive Oil or Butter
Salt & Pepper
Grate your Yukon Gold. Transfer your shavings to a colander and start squeezing as much of the potato liquid as you can. Place in bowl and crack open an egg. Add your freshly chopped garlic and about 1/4 cup of flour. Mix with a wooden spoon.
Shape into patty style. Fry in sizzling butter or olive oil or both.
This is just the starter. Now you can be creative and add whatever you like to make them a bit more interesting. Whether it be sauteed spinach, mushrooms, curry powder, red bell peppers, green onion, some type of shredded cheese...... What have you.
Some people put a dollop of sour cream on top, I would be more inclined to have sliced avocado on mine. Actually, if I were to have a potato cake in the morning time, I would add bacon. Hello grease, I love you.
