There’s nothing like good old fashioned potato pancakes as a side dish. It’s an awesome way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. You can serve these potato pancakes with meat patties, or simply enjoy them as breakfast.

May I take this opportunity to wish you all a very happy and blessed Christmas and success and health for the New Year 2012!

So wünsche ich Euch von Herzen ein frohes und gesegnetes Weihnachtsfest und viel Erfolg und Gesundheit für das Neue Jahr 2012!

  • 200 g Potatoes
  • 75 g Whole grain spelt flour
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 Egg yolk
  • 100 ml Milk
  • Salt and white pepper
  • 3-4 tbsp Butter
  1. Thoroughly clean the potatoes and place them in a medium sized pot. Cover with cold water and bring to a boil. Add in about 1 teaspoon of salt. Cook, uncovered, until potatoes are tender all the way through, about 20 minutes.
  2. Drain potatoes and let cool slightly. Peel the potato and push potatoes through a ricer into a large bowl or mash with a large fork thoroughly. Add in spelt flour and baking powder, then add in whole egg and egg yolk. Gradually pour in milk, stirring well to make a smooth batter. Season the batter with salt and pepper.
  3. Place 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. When the butter turns a light amber, drop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the batter in the skillet. You should be able to cook 3 pancakes at a time, allowing enough space between them so they have a nice round shape.
  4. Cook about 2 minutes on the first side, flip them over and cook about 1 minute longer. Remove from the pan, and keep warm. Continue adding butter to the pan and frying the rest of the batter. Serve the pancakes warm as a side with ground meat patties.

In our household, we are huge pancake and waffle eaters. I have been wanting to buy spelt flour, every time I visit our Whole Foods Market, and I put it on my list to buy some on my next trip, and for sure I want to make these delicious, tasty, and hardy potato pancake. Love how your turned out, and it's not just for breakfast but for any/every meal. Yumm!
Angie, I would love to make broccoli rabe for you, or any other dishes if you come to visit! That's for sure:DDD

Eine frohe Zeit zwischen den Festtagen wünsche ich dir! ;)

How great is that? I have never thought of making potato pancakes as a side dish! I'm not much of a fan of plain potatoes, so I'll keep this recipe in mind next time I'm making a 'served with potatoes'-kind of dish!

Cheers,
Tobias

What's spelt flour? Don't think we have it here in Malaysia as I've not come across it. Can I substitute with wheat flour?
