Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 medium Idaho white potatoes (shredded and drained very well)
1/4 cup onion (shredded)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 teaspoon parsley (chopped)
2 whole eggs
1/4 cup all purpose flour
2 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil
sour cream for serving
extra parsley for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Combine potatoes, onion, garlic, parsley and eggs in a large bowl.
  • Add in all purpose flour and breadcrumbs. Mix to combine. Try not to over mix. We want our pancakes to be light and fluffy.
  • Add in salt, pepper, and Parmesan cheese. Fold to combine.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread 1 tablespoon of olive oil onto the parchment paper. Do not wash your hands.
  • With your oiled hands portion out 8 potato pancakes. The thinner the better we want them to be crispy. Not to thin were they fall apart.
  • Place in the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway. The pancakes should be a nice golden brown color.
  • Serve immediately with a dollop of sour cream on each and fresh parsley for garnish.

I thank Emeril Lagasse for this recipe. I like to add a bit of onion and leave my potatoes unpeeled. Great side dish instead of french fries. If you make them as written or with your own touches, they're delicious!

Categories     Breakfast

Time 28m

Yield 8 pancakes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 lbs russet potatoes (about 2 large)
8 ounces bacon, cooked until crisp, drained and crumbled
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Peel the potatoes and put in cold water. Using a mandoline, grater or food processor, coarsely grate the potato. Place in a fine-mesh sieve or strainer, and squeeze out all of the potato liquid over a bowl. After the starch has settled to the bottom of the bowl, carefully pour off the clear liquid, reserving the starch. Add the grated potato to the starch in the bowl, along with the reserved crumbled bacon, egg, salt and pepper.
  • Heat a nonstick pan with a small amount of oil in the bottom of the pan.
  • When the oil is hot, take about one-eighth of the potato mixture in the palm of your hand and, using the other hand, flatten and squeeze to remove any excess liquid.
  • Place the potato mixture in the heated pan and cook, pressing down with a spatula to flatten, until crispy and golden, about 3 minutes on each side.
  • Transfer to a paper-lined baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you cook the remaining potato cakes.
