Description

Crispy pan-fried potato pancakes made with mashed potatoes, cheese, and green onions. Easy to prepare and perfect for breakfast or a light meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup mashed boiled potato (about 6 oz)
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups water
  • ⅓ cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
  • Green onions, finely sliced
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more for cooking
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons sugar

Instructions

  1. Mash the boiled potato until completely smooth.
  2. Add the water and whisk until fully incorporated.
  3. Stir in the flour, salt, and sugar until a smooth batter forms.
  4. Fold in the shredded cheese and sliced green onions.
  5. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly oil it.
  6. Pour about ¼ cup of batter into the pan for each pancake.
  7. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown.
  8. Repeat with remaining batter and serve warm.

Notes

  1. The batter should be similar to thin pancake batter; add more water if needed.
  2. Serve with sour cream, yogurt sauce, or a fresh salad.
  3. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 2 days and reheat in a skillet.
