Mini Potato Pancakes With Sour Cream And Pepper Jelly Recipes

Steps:

• Grate the potatoes on the large holes of a box grater and rinse with cold water in a colander. Strain well and squeeze dry in a towel. Transfer to a bowl and add the chopped chives and egg. Mix well to thoroughly combine, then sprinkle with the flour, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix to combine.
• Heat about 1/8 inch of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering and hot. Working in batches, spoon rounded tablespoons of the mixture into the skillet and flatten each to make thin pancakes. Cook, turning once, until golden brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Spoon a little bit of sour cream on each pancake followed by a dollop of the pepper jelly. Garnish with the chive segments and serve.

Steps:

• Combine the preserves, bell peppers, red pepper flakes, vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a blender; puree until smooth. Transfer to a small saucepan and bring to a brisk simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring often, until thickened and syrupy, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a jar and cool completely. Refrigerate for up to 1 week.

Steps:

• Grate the potatoes coarsely; squeeze the excess moisture from the potatoes; combine the potato in a large bowl with the onion, garlic, chives, rosemary, sage, salt and pepper to taste, egg yolks flour and sour cream.
• Beat the egg whites in a small bowl with an electric mixer until firm peaks o the potato mixture.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil with 20g of the butter in a non-stick pan; cook heaped tablespoons of the potato mixture, uncovered, until browned on both sides; drain the pancakes on absorbent kitchen paper and cover to keep warm; repeat with the same amounts of the remaining oil, butter and potato mixture.
• Notes: One Australian measuring cup holds approximately 250ml (8 fluid ounces), one Australian tablespoon holds 20ml and one Australian teaspoon holds 5ml. North America, New Zealand and the United Kingdom use a 15ml tablespoon. In this recipe, the addition of the rosemary and sage is really best guided by taste. I never measure herbs.
