Ukrainian potato pancakes
Description
I really love this dish because it's quick to make and turns into a hearty, delicious lunch or dinner using just a few ingredients. Serve the potato pancakes hot with sour cream or a sauce, for example. A mushroom-based sauce would go particularly well here. For a more tender texture, the potatoes are ground in a blender, but the more traditional method is to use a grater.
