Potato Cakes (Michael Smith) image

I saw him make this recipe on his show Chef at Home (Food Network Canada). I use a non stick frying pan for this, so I'm able to fry with minimal fat. In this case I used vegetable oil instead of the bacon fat. Prep time does not include cooling time.

These potato cakes were a bit too crispy for my taste. I think I'll cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.

I had a hard time getting the potato cakes to brown evenly. I think I needed to cook them over lower heat.

These potato cakes were a hit! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I served them with sour cream and applesauce, and they were delicious.
