potato pancake
Crispy grated disc
A potato pancake is a flat cake made from grated or mashed potatoes, often mixed with egg, flour, and onion, then fried until crisp.
Known by various names—latkes in Jewish cuisine, rösti in Swiss—potato pancakes appear across Eastern European and German culinary traditions: We always have potato pancakes during Hanukkah.
