I usually make potato pancakes, but last week, I only had sweet potatoes, so I decided to try something new, sweet potato pancakes! I'm happy to report, they turned out really sweet and yummy! I made them the same way I make regular potato pancakes, just left out the onions and added brown sugar. Mmmm!
SWEET POTATO PANCAKES:
1 small sweet potato - shredded
1 egg
1 tablespoon brown sugar
apx 1 tablespoon corn starch (maybe a little less)
1 sprinkle of salt
(oil for frying)
Shred the sweet potatoes into a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients, except for the oil. Put enough oil in a non-stick frying pan to cover the bottom of the pan and heat it over medium-low heat. Then spoon the sweet potato mixture into the oil and flatten it out into 4-inch rounds. You should have enough for about 4-5 sweet potato pancakes. Fry on each side until it starts to turn brown. They'll be nice and crispy and SWEET!!!
These are the perfect side dish for anything!!!!!
