easy potato pancakes( a.k.a.foolproof potato pancakes)
(3 ratings)
For some reason I could never make potato pancakes from leftover mashed potatoes.But when I tried this recipe in 2007 Taste of Home Cookbook, that was sent to them from Marlene Harguth of Maynard Minnesota I knew I had found a winner. This recipe was made as written,but I think it would be really good with some finely chopped onion and some ground black pepper.I first submitted this recipe to Recipe"ZAAR" on February 9th, 2009,but decided to post it here on May 31st.,2011.
