Instructions
 

Prepare the Potatoes

  • Pressure cook the chopped potatoes with enough water to cover for 2 whistles. Allow the pressure to release naturally. Peel and mash the cooked potatoes thoroughly.

Mix the Pancake Batter

  • In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, shredded mozzarella cheese, cornflour, salt, and pepper. Mix well until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.

Cook the Pancakes

  • Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Take a portion of the potato mixture (about 1/4 cup), flatten it gently into a small pancake, and place it on the hot griddle.
  • Drizzle a little oil over the pancake.
  • Cook for approximately 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Flip carefully when the edges start to brown.

Serve

  • Remove the cooked pancakes from the griddle and serve immediately. Enjoy with ketchup, sour cream, or your favorite dipping sauce!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Cheesy Potato Pancakes

  • For extra crispy pancakes, ensure the potatoes are well-mashed to remove excess moisture.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking. Cook in batches to ensure even browning and crisping.
  • If the mixture seems too dry, add a tablespoon of milk or water at a time until you reach a workable consistency.
  • Experiment with different cheeses! A blend of cheddar and mozzarella, or even some parmesan, would be delicious.
