Potato pancakes with mushrooms
Description
This recipe won't take much time. Although these potato pancakes with mushrooms can't be considered diet food by any means, the appetizer turns out surprisingly light and versatile—you can serve the pancakes with soups instead of regular bread, or as a hot main dish. Either way, be sure they'll be eaten up quickly, so the ingredient amounts listed here make a large portion. Here's how to make potato pancakes with mushrooms: 1. First, wash, peel, and finely chop the onion, potatoes, and mushrooms. 2. Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender. Meanwhile, start sautéing the onion in vegetable oil. 3. When the onion turns golden, add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper to taste, and continue frying until cooked through, stirring frequently. 4. Once the potatoes are ready, mash them into a puree, drain the water, then mix in the egg, sour cream, and flour. Stir thoroughly. 5. Take portions of the potato mixture, shape them into flat patties, place a spoonful of the mushroom filling in the center, then seal the edges as you prefer. 6. Flatten each pancake slightly, coat in flour, and fry on both sides in the same skillet used for the mushroom filling. Ready! Serve these tender homemade potato pancakes with mushrooms hot, garnished with fresh herbs and sour cream.
