I had a hard time getting the pancakes to flip without breaking. I think I need more practice.

These pancakes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

These leek and potato pancakes were a hit with my family! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, with a delicious savory flavor. I served them with sour cream and apple sauce, and they were perfect.
