Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Peel and grate the potatoes using a box grater or a food processor.
- Thinly slice the smoked salmon. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes with 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour, 1 egg white, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the skillet is hot, add a spoonful of the potato mixture to the pan and flatten it gently with the back of the spoon to form a pancake. You can cook multiple pancakes at a time, depending on the size of your skillet.
- Cook the pancakes for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil as needed to cook all pancakes.
- Transfer the cooked pancakes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- While the pancakes are cooking, in a separate bowl, whisk together 1/3 cup of heavy whipping cream and 1/3 cup of milk until well combined.
- Arrange the potato pancakes on a serving platter.
- Spoon a small amount of the cream mixture over each pancake.
- Top each pancake with a slice of smoked salmon.
- Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of fresh dill, capers, or a squeeze of lemon juice for added flavor.
- Serve the potato pancakes with smoked salmon immediately while they are still warm and crispy.
Tips:
- Choose waxy potatoes for the pancakes, as they hold their shape better and result in a crispier texture.
- Ensure the pan is hot before adding the potato mixture to achieve a perfectly crispy exterior.
- Use a spatula to gently press the pancake down while cooking to ensure even browning.
- Drain excess oil from the pancakes on a paper towel to keep them crisp and not greasy.
- Serve the pancakes immediately after cooking for the best taste and texture.
By following these simple steps, you'll create delicious potato pancakes topped with smoked salmon that will impress your family and friends. With its combination of crispy, savory pancakes and rich, flavorful salmon, this dish is a guaranteed hit. Enjoy your culinary creation!
