These small holiday favorites are packed with flavor. You will enjoy them as part of the Hanukkah celebration, or you can eat them for breakfast with eggs, as a side dish, or an appetizer. They are delicious topped with apple sauce or a dollop of sour cream and garnished with finely chopped chives.

Ingredients

  • 8 medium (3lb) potatoes, rinsed and ends removed
  • 2 onions, finely chopped
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper, fresh ground
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, or all-purpose gluten free flour
  • 2 tsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 cups Salute Santé! Grapeseed Oil
  • sour cream or apple sauce, to taste
  • 1 tbsp chives, finely chopped

Directions

  1. Rinse and trim the skin off the potatoes and shred using a grater, either a hand grater or KitchenAid shredder (4 medium potatoes is about 5 cups shredded).
  2. Strain grated potatoes to remove liquid.
  3. Finely chop onions.
  4. Place shredded potatoes and chopped onions in a large mixing bowl and toss with sea salt, then chopped parsley.
  5. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the eggs, all-purpose flour and black pepper.
  6. Stir in the potato mixture. The mixture will be lumpy.
  7. Heat the grapeseed oil in a non-stick skillet on medium-low heat.
  8. For each pancake, pour 1⁄4 cup of batter into the pan and cook 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
  9. When finished cooking, remove the pancakes from the pan and place them on a paper towel to absorb excess oil or straining rack for oil to drip.
  10. Serve warm.
  11. Optional: top with apple sauce or sour cream and finely chopped chives.
