Here’s a delicious recipe that won’t have you looking for flight deals to find the ingredients to make it.
Makes 4 servings
2 large Idaho potatoes
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tbsp. flour
1 small yellow onion – peeled and finely grated
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. cooking oil
Coarsely grate the potatoes into a bowl of cold water and let them stand for 15 to 20 minutes. While you are waiting mix the egg and flour until smooth and stir in all remaining ingredients except for the oil. Drain the potatoes and squeeze them as dry as possible then stir them into the batter. Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet over high heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Drop the potato mixture by spoonfuls into the oil, shaping them into 4 or 5 large cakes and flatten them slightly with a spatula. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side then turn the heat down to low and cook the pancakes for 20 to 25 minutes .. turning frequently so they’re cooked through. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.

My dad makes this amazing savoury pancakes…with spring onions, chillies and anchovies. Maybe i’ll post his recipe sometime on my blog.

Sounds good… but I don’t know about the anchovies.
Hehhhe..i can undestand that shocked look. Our anchovies are the small, dried ones and not the larger ones used in other parts of the world. Locally they are known as “ikan bilis”. Wish I can zap that dish for u to try!
