Potato Pancakes With Scallions And Prosciutto Food

POTATO PANCAKES WITH SCALLIONS AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with paper towels and another with aluminum foil.
• Peel the potatoes and grate with a grater or the shredding blade of a food processor. Place the potatoes in a bowl, adding the scallions, prosciutto, eggs, flour and pepper. Mix to blend, adding a little more flour if it is too liquid.
• In a deep skillet or frying pan, add enough oil to reach a depth of about 1/4 inch. Heat to about 350 degrees on a frying thermometer. Drop full tablespoons of the potato mixture into the hot oil, flattening each mound with a spatula. Fry about 1 minute on each side, or until golden brown and crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain on the paper-towel-lined cookie sheet, then arrange in one layer on the aluminum-foil-lined sheet. Change the paper towels as they absorb the oil. Place the cooked pancakes in the oven to keep warm. Continue frying, adding more oil as necessary. Serve hot or at room temperature.

SALMON SCALLION POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine hash browns, pancake mix, egg, soup mix, scallions, and rose water. Heat oil on a griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat. Drop hash brown mixture, in tablespoon-sized portions onto hot pan, and cook until golden brown, turning halfway through. Remove from pan to drain and then serve by placing a dollop of sour cream on top of each pancake. To create an extremely special garnish, roll each salmon strip, starting with large end, and place on its side to create a rose-shaped bundle. Place 1 "rose" salmon strip on each potato pancake amid the sour cream. Sprinkle with scallions.

When pancakes are brown flip to other side and continue to brown. Remove to paper towels to drain and season with salt.

• Transfer mixture to large bowl, add eggs, scallions, parsley, flour, salt, and pepper and stir gently to combine.
• In large nonstick skillet over moderate heat, heat 3 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Drop 4 (1/3 cup) portions batter into pan and gently flatten each into 3-inch-diameter (3/4-inch-thick) disk. Fry, turning once, until well browned on both sides, about 8 minutes total.

CRISPY TRADITIONAL POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• 1. Peel the potatoes and put in cold water. Using a grater or a food processor coarsely grate the potatoes and onions. Place together in a fine-mesh strainer or tea towel and squeeze out all the water over a bowl. The potato starch will settle to the bottom; reserve that after you have carefully poured off the water.
• 2. Mix the potato and onion with the potato starch. Add the scallions, egg, and salt and pepper.
• 3. Heat a griddle or non-stick pan and coat with a thin film of vegetable oil. Take about 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture in the palm of your hand and flatten as best you can. Place the potato mixture on the griddle, flatten with a large spatula, and fry for a few minutes until golden. Flip the pancake over and brown the other side. Remove to paper towels to drain. Serve immediately. You can also freeze the potato pancakes and crisp them up in a 350-degree oven at a later time.
• Variation: If you want a more traditional and thicker pancake, you can add an extra egg plus 1/3 cup of matzah meal to the batter.

PROSCIUTTO AND POTATO CAKES

• Add the egg, green onions prosciutto and garlic to the cooled potato.
• Take two tablespoons of potato mixture and form into a patty. Dip the patty into the extra egg and press into the breadcrumbs until well coated in crumbs. Repeat this process with the remaining mixture.
• Using a medium heat, heat enough oil to cover the base of a large non-stick fying pan, cook the patties in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side or until a golden brown colour.
