POTATO PANCAKES
Latkes, draniki, deruni, potato pancakes...every culture, every cuisine has some sort of variant of these delicious, crispy on the outside yet soft on the inside, flavorful medallions.This recipe is a staple in my kitchen. It's made with simple ingredients, very easy to make and the final product is very satisfying and nutritious. These potato pancakes can be made in advance, eaten cold or hot, used in sandwiches instead of bread...well, the possibilities of using them in different ways are really endless. Potatoes are rich in potassium, vitamin C, vitamin B6, folate, niacin, manganese, magnesium and iron. Enjoy them with guacamole, wild sardines, applesauce or anything you want, really!
