Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups mashed potatoes
- 1 cup cooked vegetables (cabbage, carrots, peas, Brussels sprouts)
Vegetables:
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
Fats and Seasonings:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Thoroughly combine mashed potatoes, finely chopped vegetables, and diced onion in a mixing bowl, ensuring even distribution of ingredients.
- Warm a large skillet over medium heat, adding butter and olive oil to create a golden, fragrant cooking surface.
- Gently transfer the potato-vegetable mixture into the heated pan, spreading it uniformly to create an even layer.
- Allow the mixture to sizzle and develop a crisp, golden-brown crust for 12-14 minutes without disturbing, watching for edges turning golden.
- Carefully flip the entire potato-vegetable pancake using a wide spatula, ensuring the surface remains intact.
- Continue cooking the opposite side for an additional 7-9 minutes until achieving a uniform, crispy texture with deep golden color.
- Sprinkle sea salt and freshly ground black pepper across the surface, adjusting seasoning to personal preference.
- Transfer the crispy potato and veggie mash to a serving platter, allowing excess oil to drain momentarily.
- Serve immediately while hot and crisp, presenting as a delightful side dish or light vegetarian main course.
Notes
- Swap starchy potatoes like Russet for waxy varieties like Yukon Gold to maintain better texture and prevent mushiness during frying.
- Add breadcrumbs or cornmeal to the potato mixture for extra crispiness and a delightful crunch on the exterior.
- Chop vegetables uniformly to ensure even cooking and consistent texture throughout the dish.
- Consider using a cast-iron skillet for more even heat distribution and a perfectly golden-brown crust.
