Savory Potato Pancake with Caramelized Onions

Today, I’m excited to share a recipe for a savory potato pancake with caramelized onions. This dish is perfect for a cozy brunch or even as a side dish for dinner. The combination of crispy potatoes and sweet onions creates a delicious and comforting flavor profile that is sure to impress your taste buds.

Ingredients:

  • 2 large potatoes, grated
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Kitchen Tools:

  • grater
  • skillet
  • mixing bowl
  • spatula

To start, preheat your skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once the oil is heated, add the thinly sliced onions and cook until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. Remove the onions from the skillet and set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, flour, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix until all the ingredients are well combined. Then, heat the remaining olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Take a scoop of the potato mixture and flatten it into a pancake shape in the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until the pancake is crispy and golden brown.

Once the potato pancake is cooked, top it with the caramelized onions and serve hot. This dish pairs well with a side salad or a dollop of sour cream.

This savory potato pancake with caramelized onions weighs approximately 300 grams once cooked. It serves 2 people, with each serving weighing around 150 grams. Each serving is approximately 200 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to sprinkle a little bit of shredded cheese on top of the potato pancake before adding the caramelized onions for an extra burst of flavor.

I encourage you to give this savory potato pancake with caramelized onions a try. It’s a simple yet flavorful dish that is sure to become a favorite in your household. Feel free to customize it with your favorite herbs or spices to make it your own. Enjoy!
