    Remove from the water and cool completely. Peel the potatoes and pass through a coarse grater.
  • Step 3
    In a large non-stick sauté pan, over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the leeks. Season with salt and white pepper. Sauté for 2 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Add the potatoes and mix thoroughly.
  • Step 5
    Using the back of a wooden spoon or spatula, press the potato mixture firmly into the pan. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the potatoes are crispy and golden brown.
  • Step 6
    Using a spatula, flip the potato cake over and continue cooking the other side. Add more butter if needed.
  • Step 7
    Remove from the pan and slice into individual servings.
