Gouda Potato Pancakes Recipes

POLISH POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper then place in a 200° oven. You'll transfer the Potato Pancakes to this baking sheet to keep them warm.
• Lightly beat the eggs in a medium to large bowl then set aside.
• Peel the potatoes and onions then cut into cubes. Add potatoes and onions to a food processor (or blender) and grate. NOTE: if you're using a box grater, peel the potatoes and onions but leave whole to grate.
• After the potatoes and onions are grated drain any excess moisture then add the potato mixture to the eggs. Season with salt and pepper then stir to combine.
• Gradually stir 3-4 tablespoons of flour into the batter to bind it (you want the batter on the thin side).
• Heat 2-3 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet (enough to cover the bottom of the skillet) over medium to medium-high heat until the oil starts to shimmer (NOT smoke). The amount of oil you use will depend upon the size of your skillet.
• Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup scoop the batter into the hot skillet forming the pancakes. Gently spread the batter using the back of the same measuring cup until the thickness of the pancake is about 1/2″.
• Fry 3 minutes or until the bottoms are golden then turn, pressing down on them lightly with a spatula and cook another 3 minutes or until golden.
• Transfer the pancakes to the baking sheet, (optional) lightly blot with paper towels then place in the oven to keep warm while you start the next batch.
• Repeat with the remaining batter until the pancakes are all cooked then serve right away.

SMOKED GOUDA CRISPY POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• Coarsely shred the potato and onion on a box grater. Transfer shreds to a piece of cheese cloth and squeeze as dry as possible. Let sit for 2 minutes and then squeeze dry again.
• Whisk together the flour, salt and pepper. Toss the potatoes, onions, and cheese in the flour to coat and then the lightly beaten egg and stir until evenly coated.
• In a large skillet, heat up a generous amount of oil over medium heat until hot and shimmery. Drop the potato mixture by the tablespoon and flatten. Cook over medium to medium-high heat until edges are crisp and golden, about 1 1/2 - 2 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until golden, about 1-2 minutes. Drain on a wire rack or paper towels. Continue pancaking until potato mixture is done. Top pancakes with sour cream, green onions, and more shredded gouda, if desired.
