Instructions:
These pancakes make a good, simple meal, and kids love them!
- Grate potato, and rinse twice with cold water to remove starch. Squeeze out all excess juice.
- Mix all grated vegetables, scallions, and salt. Let sit 10 to 15 minutes to sweat the vegetables.
- Separate eggs. Add 3 egg yolks, pepper, and flour to vegetable mixture, and stir well. Beat egg whites until stiff and gently fold into the pancake batter.
- Pour the batter into 3- to 4-inch pancakes onto a heavy-bottomed skillet or a griddle, and fry them in very hot oil.
