Tater Pancakes

Postby OldUsedParts » Wed Nov 04, 2015 1:28 pm

I got some mashed taters leftover and wanted to make some tater pancakes in the morning. There are lots of recipes on the net but I was wondering if any of Y'all had a "secret" or "favorite" way to do them???

TIA, :salut:

Well, not 'Tater Panackes', but my wife's favorite with leftover mash is cook up some chorizo and mix it all together...

I have used this one with mashed potatoes. CF :D

Potato Pancakes
2 large baking potatoes, peeled and diced
2 eggs
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1-1/4 teaspoon salt
2 garlic cloves
sunflower oil for frying
Sour cream to serve

1. In a food processor add potatoes, eggs, flour, salt and garlic. Blend well until pureed. In a 9-inch skillet on medium heat add enough oil to fry pancakes (about 1-14 inch).

2. Drop tablespoonfuls of potato mixture into skillet and spread out to a 3-inch circle, about 1/4-inch thick.

3. Fry until brown on the bottom (don't turn until the pancake is brown or it will stick), about 3 to 5 minutes. Turn the pancake and fry the other side 3 to 5 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Drain on paper towels. Serve with sour cream.
OK, get over it, you lost. God bless America

Love all your ideas ñ I have used one of those veggie threaders or an attachment on a Kitchen Aid mixer (threader that cuts veggies into threads even for the taters to start with - but I always rinse ñ soak the threaded taters in cold water ñ sometimes make them days ahead just change the water. They kept up to 3 days ñ drain them well ñ pat dry first with paper towels or a clean linen towel (those taters plain are great fried in hot oil quick - salted ñ malt vinegar) - back to what I was typing ñ add veggies ñ onion or use onion granular to any of the potato pancakes or any of U make adding any of those delicious sounding recipes all ready posted with any squashes – thin onion or use onion ñ garlic granular mixed in. Frying bacon ñ crumble - adding to the mix ñ sometimes replace the flour with pancake mix ñ actually make pancakes but I add little baking powder if just using flour. That chorizo that someone mentioned sounds great also. They are brusting with flavor with veggies added. I used eggplant also with the taters.
A mistake is sometimes a great creation
