Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) container light sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon fines herbes
  • 12 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 medium baking potato
  • 3 medium zucchini
  • 2 carrots, peeled
  • 1 onion, minced
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 12 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 14 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided (as needed)

Method

  • In a small bowl, mix together the first 3 ingredients; chill for 2-4 hours.
  • Peel the potato; grate the potato, zucchini, and carrots (my food processor works well for this step).
  • Press grated vegetables between paper towels to drain as much moisture as possible.
  • In a mixing bowl, stir together the grated vegetables, onion, eggs, flour, salt, and pepper.
  • In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat.
  • Spoon 1/4 cup batter per pancake into skillet.
  • Cook each pancake approximately 4 minutes on each side; add more oil to skillet as needed.
  • Drain pancakes on paper towels.
  • Serve with sour cream mixture.
