On Saturday, St. Patrick's Day, we had Mark and Ilene over for dinner. We made the traditional corned beef and cabbage, with one addition. I also made green potato pancakes. That's right, green potato pancakes and no, I didn't use food coloring. That would be cheating.
Green Potato Pancakes
- A few large potatoes
- One Egg
- 1-2 tablespoons flour
- 3 scallions
- Salt to taste
I've been using our smoothie maker to mix up the batter. I don't use the spout, but the stick is a must. Peel, wash, and dice the potatoes into 1/2 inch chunks. Add the potatoes, egg, and flour to the blender. Blend on low until the chunks are gone. Chop the scallions into inch long bits and add to the blender until they're well blended.
Fry in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Grease the pan with some butter then pour in about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake. Cook until golden brown on the bottom then flip and brown the other side.
