Cheese And Potato Pancakes Recipes

CHEESY LEFTOVER MASHED POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine the mashed potatoes, cheese, scallions, egg and 3 tablespoons of the flour in a large bowl (see Cook's Note). With your hands, divide the mixture into 12 portions. Roll each portion into a compact ball, and then flatten it into a pancake about 1/2-inch thick.
• Put the remaining 1/2 cup flour in a shallow dish and carefully coat each pancake in the flour.
• Heat 3 to 4 tablespoons of oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. (Add enough oil to thoroughly coat the bottom of the pan.)
• Fry the pancakes, in batches, until they're golden brown and crispy on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes. Add more oil to the pan as needed between batches. (Do not overcrowd the pan and do not flip the pancakes too soon or they won't develop a crisp crust.) Transfer the pancakes to a paper towel-lined plate and immediately sprinkle them with salt.
• Serve the potato pancakes topped with sour cream and garnished with additional chopped scallions.
