These savoury potato pancakes are super swift &amp effortless to prepare. Most of the components are pantry staples that you likely have on hand right now! The Tiny Potato Company’s tender skinned Baby Boomers operate completely right here – after they’re grated you’d in no way know we’d didn’t peel a single potato for this recipe.

Latkes (potato pancakes) are usually made with eggs to helps bind the mixture together. In this vegan recipe we’re going to use flour (taking care not to above build the gluten) and a touch of cornstarch to do the same work.

Some ideas for the crispiest, easiest potato pancakes:

• For very best texture, use a thick lower grater to shred potatoes
• Use a foods processor to grate your potatoes (if you have one particular),  it’s faster and you’ll save your finger ideas
• Squeeze most of the moisture from the grated potato ahead of creating the batter (the very same goes for any moisture-rich veggie include-ins as well)
• Stir the “batter” nicely to aid create the gluten in the flour which assists the cakes bind collectively without having egg
• The latkes are at their crispiest immediately following cooking, but reheating them in a pan above medium heat (with out oil) will heat them completely and crisp ’em up again

This recipe is an excellent area to use up any odds and ends from your fridge. Fresh herbs, onion, carrot, zucchini, and any other veggies that aren’t as well moist (or that you can squeeze the moisture from) would be good alternatives. We loved these crispy cakes a couple of techniques, topped with a dollop of homemade tzatziki and a sprinkle of green onion (that’s how we served it for these images), with ketchup and sriracha, and with vegan cheese and fresh dill mixed into the “batter”. I’m most thrilled to attempt these “breakfast style”, topped with tofu scramble, veggies, and tempeh bacon. You can customize and best these crispy cakes nonetheless you like! Take pleasure in
