Ingredients
- 500 grams Potatoes
- 150 grams Cheddar cheese
- 60 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 large Eggs
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 4 tablespoons Sour cream
Directions
Step 1
Peel the potatoes, then grate them using a coarse grater. Place the grated potatoes into a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much water as possible.
Step 2
Grate the cheddar cheese and finely chop the green onions.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, grated cheese, flour, egg, green onions, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until a cohesive batter forms.
Step 4
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 5
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the potato and cheese mixture and form into a small patty with your hands. Place the patty in the skillet. Repeat until the skillet is filled, leaving enough space between each pancake.
Step 6
Cook the pancakes for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Step 7
Place the cooked pancakes on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Step 8
Serve the Cheese and Potato Pancakes hot, garnished with sour cream on the side for dipping or topping.
