Mashed Potato Pancakes
Sounds great! Use this as a side to chicken or pork, or as a main for breakfast topped with a couple of eggs and some sausage on the side. This makes a lot as written, so cut this recipe in half or when making the first time. On my to cook list for sure. Link to the shortcut is listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 kilos potatoes, washed and cut into large pieces, peel if you desire
- 1 large onion
- 3 eggs, slightly beaten
- 2 1/2 cups Bisquick Mix, OR make from a shortcut
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- olive oil, for frying
Instructions
- Boil the potatoes in a large pot until soft, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and put back in the pot. With a cheese grater, grate in the onion into the pot. Add the beaten eggs, Bisquick, salt and pepper. Mix and mash thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated and you have a batter the same consistency as mashed potatoes.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Form pancakes from the potato dough, about the size of your palm. Cook in the oiled skillet, about 3-4 minutes each side. Serve topped with sour cream as a side dish with chicken or pork, or as a main with a couple of eggs, and bacon or sausage on the side.
