an easy cheesy potato recipe

cheese potato pancakes ~

Here’s a really easy recipe using ingredients you likely have at home already!

1 large russet potato (400g)
salt for boiling water
1 tbsp sugar (9g)
¼ cup cornstarch (34g)
mozzarella cheese (10g each)
oil

Peel and dice your potatoes then boil in salted water until it can easily be pierced with a fork. Transfer to a bowl and mix well, then stir in the sugar and cornstarch. Separate the mixture into fifths and roll into a ball. Flatten it and add a handful of cheese, then close it up and shape into a disc. Then shallow fry for about 5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

I’m making these tomorrow! They look heavenly 🤤

This is perfect! My grandma (whom I’m the live in caretaker for) just got diagnosed with celiac at 89 years old and feels limited on her treats. This will be SO good and make her feel less limited! I’ll make her these today!

These look delish, a nice alternative to plain potato cakes. When i make them i will add a good pinch of herbs (i would use oregano) + a little pinch of garlic grannules mixed in with the cheese. Thanks for showing this.

Gonna make this right now. This looks so good and doesn't require 50 ingredients.
Update: I made these but swapped the corn starch for flour since that's what i had at home. They turned out so good and cheesy. Only thing i would do next time is cook them for a little longer for more cripsy taste and add salt lol. Must try!

I grew up on these there called papa pancake con que so there so good but I add shredded cheese to the mashed potatoes so it’s more cheesy throughout the whole pancake. There my fav for breakfast💖🥹

They look so gooood! Love that you only have to shallow fry, I hate using heaps of oil for deep frying 😂

i made this good !!! next time i make this i would definitely add more seasoning to the potato dough stuff, it tasted pretty bland without chilli garlic sauce

I wish I had seen this again like 15-20 mins ago. I threw cheese on some leftover rice and microwaved it (it's late so I didn't want something too big) but I am also experiencing a potato surplus at my house and I really wanted OOEY GOOEY cheese like that! Plus I'm eastern European so potatoes are one of my life's great joys.

I tried these! And to anyone who is wondering “should I put sugar in or not” I recommend not if you want a good savory potato, even adding a bit less of the sugar recommend kindof runied the taste for me.

Read multiple comments asking measurements for cornstarch & sugar. Assuming add cornstarch in increments until it forms a stiff mixture to roll by hand and add sugar to taste? (Depends on size of potatoes) My best guess because no one has responded.

[BlackqtpinkOffical]

I’m about to make them! I will attempt them without sugar and cornstarch though!
Edit: the cheese stretch was so good! It’s amazing
