Today we cook our favorite potato pancakes or pancakes with slices of ham and hard cheese - we update and make a familiar dish even more delicious. If you like the intense aroma of deli meats, go for smoked ham.
Ingredients:
Potatoes - 5 pcs.
Onions - 1 pc.
Ham - 100 g
Cheese - 100 g
Egg - 1 pc.
Flour - 3 tbsp. l.
Vegetable oil - 40 ml
Salt, black pepper - to taste
Step by step recipe:
Step 1 - To fry potato pancakes with ham and cheese, take the foods on the list. Oil should be refined, non-smoking when frying, corn or sunflower oil. I like it richer and fatter - instead of vegetable oil, use melted bacon or lard.
Step 2 - Peeled potato tubers with three large / standard shavings and be sure to squeeze out: drain the released liquid (potato juice). Add chopped onion. Onions flavor and leave the desired speck - three as small as possible, to a state of puree.
Step 3 - Drive in one egg, add salt and ground hot pepper. Mix carefully layer by layer, evenly distributing spices and spread egg. Here you can flavor with spicy herbs, passed through a press with a garlic clove.
Step 4 - Add ham and cheese to the seasoned potato mass. First we cut the meat product into slices, then into bars, which we cut across. We get small cubes. Rub a piece of hard cheese on a grater with thin shavings.
Step 5 - Add wheat flour to hold all the components together. Stir from bottom to top again. The main taste remains with the potatoes, so add flour in dosed amounts, only for viscosity.
Step 6 - Warm up the pan with vegetable oil (or a piece of bacon), spread about two tablespoons of wet mass (potato dough) in hot fat. Lightly ram the top with a spatula - we form mini-pancakes. Fry "renewed" potato pancakes at moderate temperature until golden and oily crust on both sides. Transfer to paper towel, remove excess oil. Stir the potato dough each time before placing it on a hot surface, as the liquid / juice still collects at the bottom of the bowl.
We serve mouth-watering pancakes with ham and cheese hot in the heat or, after cooling a little, warm, with sour cream and fresh herbs.
Bon Appetit!
