Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups mashed potatoes (about 1 pound 2 ounces potatoes, peeled, cut in chunks and steamed until tender, then mashed with a potato masher or a fork)
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped steamed or blanched broccoli raab
- 1/4 cup chopped chives
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- 13 to 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan, to taste
- 3 heaped tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 3 to 4 tablespoons sunflower oil, grapeseed oil or canola oil for frying
Method
- In a large bowl, mix together the mashed potatoes, finely chopped broccoli raab, chives, baking powder, salt, pepper, Parmesan and flour.
- Beat the eggs and stir in.
- Begin heating a large heavy skillet over medium heat.
- Heat the oven to 300 degrees.
- Add 2 tablespoons of the oil and when it is hot carefully scoop up heaped tablespoons of the potato mixture and use a spoon or spatula to ease them out of the spoon into the pan.
- Gently flatten the mounds slightly with the back of a spoon or a spatula but dont worry if this is hard to do if they stick -- because when you flip them over you can flatten them into pancakes.
- Brown on the first side about 2 or 3 minutes and using a spatula, flip the potato and broccoli raab mounds over and gently push them down so that they will be shaped like pancakes.
- Brown on the other side and remove to a baking sheet.
- Continue with the remaining potato mixture, adding oil to the pan as necessary.
