Ingredients

Scale

Potato Cheese Pancakes:

  • 500 g (1 pound) potatoes (peeled and cubed)
  • about 90 g (3/4 cup) all-purpose flour (+ more for coating)
  • 4 g (1 tsp) sugar (optional)
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper
  • Mozzarella cheese (or other stretchy cheese like Cheddar, Swiss cheese…)
  • Oil for cooking (I used Peanut oil)

Instructions

  1. Peel and chop the potatoes: Peel the potatoes and chop into medium-size chunks.
  2. Boil the potatoes: Boil potato chunks in salted water until fork-tender or steam them.
  3. Mash the potatoes: Mash the hot potatoes until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add ingredients: Mix in flour, sugar, salt, and pepper until you get a soft, not sticky mix.
  5. Form the pancakes: Scoop mashed potato mix, add cheese, form into balls, flatten, and coat with flour.
  6. Cook the pancakes: Fry in oil until browned on both sides.
  7. Serve: Drain on paper towels and serve hot.

Notes

  • You can customize these pancakes by adding herbs or spices to the potato mix.
  • Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying to ensure a crispy exterior.
