Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Potatoes
- 150 grams Cheddar cheese
- 60 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 large Eggs
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 4 tablespoons Sour cream
Instructions
Peel the potatoes, then grate them using a coarse grater. Place the grated potatoes into a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much water as possible.
Grate the cheddar cheese and finely chop the green onions.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, grated cheese, flour, egg, green onions, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until a cohesive batter forms.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the potato and cheese mixture and form into a small patty with your hands. Place the patty in the skillet. Repeat until the skillet is filled, leaving enough space between each pancake.
Cook the pancakes for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Place the cooked pancakes on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve the Cheese and Potato Pancakes hot, garnished with sour cream on the side for dipping or topping.
