Tasty potato pancakes with garlic and chives.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 4 large Russet potatoes, peeled
  • 1 small onion, peeled
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 3 tablespoons bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream
  • 2 teaspoons chives, fresh or frozen
  • 1 small garlic clove, crushed
  • salt and pepper, to taste

PREPARATION:

Grate potatoes and onion with food processor; transfer to large bowl. Or, grate the potatoes and onion by hand into a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients to make a thick batter. If the batter is too thin, add more bread crumbs until you can easily pick the batter up in your hands. Form into 4 to 6 pancakes.

Heat a skillet with 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or regular margarine or vegetable oil until the fat is hot. Add the potato pancakes a few at a time in order not to crowd the skillet.

Cook on both sides until brown and thoroughly cooked. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Keep warm on paper towels in a very low (200 degree) oven.
Serves 4 to 6.
