Potato pancakes with kefir
Description
Goes wonderfully with tea and coffee. Kefir, mashed potato, flour, eggs, salt and pepper — that’s all it takes for our fritters. The result is fluffy, very delicate-tasting pancakes. We make these fritters savoury; you can also add herbs, cheese or sausage. They’re best served with a sauce or sour cream
