ONION POTATO PANCAKES
"WHEN Grandma prepared potato pancakes, she used an old-fashioned grater, great for potatoes but not for knuckles! With homemade applesauce, this sauce, this side dish complements a meal so well. I made these pancakes for my family and often served them as a main dish for light suppers.

SWEET POTATO-GREEN ONION PANCAKES WITH POACHED EGGS, HOLIDAY HAM AND PEPPER JAM
Steps:
- For the pancakes: Combine 4 cups cold water and 1 tablespoon kosher salt in a large bowl and stir until the salt dissolves. Stir in the sweet potato and let sit for 15 minutes. Drain, then dump onto a large piece of cheesecloth and wring out as much water as possible.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Whisk together the eggs, onion and some pepper in a large bowl. Add the sweet potato and flour, and mix until combined. Fold in the green onions.
- Heat a few tablespoons each of butter and oil until shimmering in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Using a scant 1/4 cup per pancake, add the sweet potato mixture to the pan, leaving some space in between. Flatten slightly and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels, then transfer the pancakes to a baking sheet and place in the oven for 5 minutes to finish cooking.
- For the eggs: Fill a high-sided skillet halfway with water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat; add the vinegar. Line a plate with paper towels. Break each egg into a little ramekin or cup.
- One at a time, slip the eggs into the water, leaving space between them; adjust the heat to a bare simmer. Cook until the whites are set and the yolks still runny, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the eggs to paper towels to blot off the water.
- To serve: Put the pancakes on a serving platter. Top 4 of them with a smear of pepper jelly, a few slices of ham and a poached egg. Season with salt and pepper. Top with another pancake to make sandwiches (see Cook's Note).

SWEET POTATO PANCAKES WITH APPLESAUCE AND DILL SOUR CREAM

Time 30m
Yield 8 to 10 pancakes
Number Of Ingredients 11
Steps:
- Grate the sweet potatoes and onion on the coarse holes of a box grater directly into a large bowl. Add the flour, thyme, paprika, eggs, 1 teaspoon salt and a generous grinding of pepper. Mix well to combine.
- Heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. The oil is ready when you stick a shred of sweet potato in and it sizzles immediately. Scoop out the batter with a 1/3-cup measure and press firmly into thin patties, about 4 inches in diameter and about 1/4 inch thick. Set the patties on a parchment-lined baking sheet. You should have 8 to 10 patties.
- Slide as many patties as will fit comfortably into the oil. Fry the patties until cooked through and golden brown on both sides (flip carefully with a spatula and fork or spoon to help guide them without splashing the oil), 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining patties. (You can keep the first batch warm in the oven at 250 degrees F, if you like, while you cook the rest.) Season with salt while still warm.
- To serve, combine the sour cream and dill in a small serving bowl. Serve the warm pancakes with the dill sour cream and a dish of applesauce.
