Potato pancakes
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Potato pancakes are a very simple dish that practically requires no ingredients at all—just potatoes and cream. Besides, cream can always be substituted with vegetable oil or melted butter; sour cream also works well. However, in practice, the version with cream turns out to be the tastiest. By the way, it wouldn't hurt to add your favorite spices to the potato mixture—basil, marjoram, oregano—whatever you prefer. Good luck with your cooking! I hope you'll enjoy this easy potato pancake recipe! ;) Serve the finished dish immediately.
