potato pancakes

Crispy tuber cakes

Potato pancakes are flat cakes made from grated or mashed potatoes, bound with egg and flour, then fried until crisp.

They appear across Eastern European cuisines under various names—latkes in Jewish cooking, traditionally served during Hanukkah.

We always have potato pancakes with applesauce and sour cream.
