Scandinavian Potato Cakes Recipe

potatoesThese are a real treat for breakfast. Although the batter needs to be refrigerated for thirty minutes it could be made ahead and then each potato cake (which are actually more like pancakes) take two minutes each to cook.

The potatoes add valuable nutrients to the dish and the entire recipe is low-cost.

Although the original recipe calls for applesauce to serve (which is delicious and adds more nutrients by way of the fruit) I find that these are delicious served with lemon wedges so that each person can add just that extra zing.

But my all means experiment – I tried these with a spoonful of French apricot preserve and that was magnifique!
