Kidney Friendly Garlic Potato Pancakes Recipes

Steps:

• In a non-stick saucepan, melt the unsalted butter on medium-low heat. Once completely melted, add the salt, garlic, and onion and sauté them until the onions start to turn clear, or about 5 minutes.
• Add the water and pepper and increase the heat a little so that it boils. Once boiling, turn off the heat. Add the mashed potatos and stir well. They should have a creamy consistency and no visible "lumps", except for the onions. Extra water may be added, in small amounts (think tbsp) at a time if needed.
• Add the Parmesan cheese and stir well, followed by the Swiss cheese. It helps to tear the Swiss cheese into smaller pieces, first. Stir until the Swiss cheese is completely melted into the potatoes.
• Now we're ready to fry! Drop the potatoes into 4 pancakes in a non-stick frying pan. Add the oil and fry them until they become crispy, flipping them occasionally. Because they do not contain flour or eggs, they will still be very soft.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Very generously brush melted butter into the bottom and sides of 24 mini muffin cups. Place the tin(s) on a baking sheet and set aside until needed.
• Add cold water to a large bowl until 1/3 full. Grate potatoes into the cold water, then fill the bowl almost to the top with more cold water. Swish the potatoes around with your hands to rinse off the starch, then pour off most of the water and refill with more cold water. Continue this process until the water runs almost clear. Pour potatoes into a colander and let drain for a few minutes.
• Transfer grated potatoes to a clean kitchen towel. Wrap potatoes in the towel and squeeze over a bowl until no more liquid comes out.
• Transfer potatoes to a clean bowl and add garlic powder, salt, pepper, cayenne, and olive oil. Sprinkle flour over top, then add Parmigiano-Reggiano. Mix and toss gently with your hands until thoroughly combined and mixture feels damp.
• Grab potato mixture from the bottom of the bowl to get as much moisture as possible, and fill the prepared muffin cups. It's okay if the mixture comes up above the pan by 1/2 to 1 inch.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until golden brown on top, caramelized on the bottom, and crispy all over, 40 to 45 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let sit in the pan for 5 minutes before flipping them over onto the baking sheet.

Steps:

• Mix together potatoes, eggs, and milk in a large bowl.
• Stir flour, Parmesan cheese, Cheddar cheese, bacon bits, onion salt, baking powder, salt, and black pepper into potato mixture using a fork.
• Heat corn oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Spoon about 2 tablespoons potato mixture into per patty into skillet. Cook patties until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side.
• Drain cooked pancakes on paper towel-lined plate.

Steps:

• In a sieve or colander, drain potatoes, squeezing to remove excess liquid. Pat dry; set aside. , In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in eggs until blended. Add onion and reserved potatoes; toss to coat., Drop by tablespoonfuls onto a preheated greased skillet. Fry in batches until lightly browned on both sides. Drain on paper towels. Serve with applesauce or syrup if desired.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 2 teaspoons of salt.
• Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes. When the water is boiling, add the potatoes and cook until tender, about 10 to 12 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, heat the butter in a medium skillet. When melted, add the garlic. Cook over low heat just until the garlic starts to turn light golden brown. Take care not to burn the butter. Take the pan off the heat and set aside to cool.
• When the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, drain them and return them to the pot. The residual heat will help the excess water evaporate. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or a ricer. Gradually add the milk until the potatoes are the desired consistency. Stir in the butter and garlic mixture, add the remaining 1 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste.
• Form the mixture into pancake patties. Place in skillet with 1 teaspoons oil or butter and cook on each side for about 1 to 2 minutes over medium-high heat, until a bit crisped on both sides.
• Serve and enjoy!
