What's for Dinner

Last night we went to Perkins and I had potato pancakes.  Usually, they are quite tasty but I was disappointed.  I told Stephen that my mother made the best potato pancakes and I was never able to duplicate them. 
Zosia, I'm going to dedicate this blog to you because I know that you absolutely adored Mom's potato pancakes.
While I was at work, Stephen downloaded a recipe and guess what we had for dinner?



Don't look Zosia, but Stephen is using the wrong side of the grater.  He's shredding the potato instead of grating it!!!


With egg and flour added.  Doesn't look too appealing.


Zosia, this doesn't look right.


So time to do another batch.  Peel more potatoes.

Use the grater 


Add an egg and a sprinkle of flour






Umm umm good


Stephen says that his mother's potato pancakes are better.

  1. I think the issue is that your potato pancakes, Genya, are more like what I would call a Swiss "rosti" (and I actually parboil the potatoes first before grating). I love them, too. Our mother's was an Irish potato pancake that was made with leftover mashed potatoes. They are birds of a different feather. I like them both.
