Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

3/4 pound (1 large) russet (baking) potato
2 slices of cooked lean bacon, crumbled fine
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives or green part of scallion
2 tablespoons olive oil
sour cream as an accompaniment if desired

Steps:

  • Peel the potato, grate it coarse, and press it between several thicknesses of paper towel to remove any excess moisture. In a bowl stir together the potato, the bacon, the chives, and salt and pepper to taste. In a large heavy skillet heat the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking, form the potato mixture into 4 patties, and cook the patties, tamping them down with a spatula, for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until the pancakes are golden brown and cooked through. Serve the pancakes with the sour cream.

I've never made potato pancakes before, but these were so easy to make and they turned out so well. I'll definitely be making them again.

These pancakes were a great way to use up leftover bacon. I'll definitely be making them again soon.

I'm not a big fan of chives, so I omitted them from the recipe. The pancakes were still delicious!

The pancakes were a bit bland. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

These pancakes were a little too greasy for my taste.

I've made these potato pancakes several times now and they always turn out perfect. They're a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes.

These potato pancakes were a hit with my family! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the bacon and chives added a delicious flavor.
