sally martegani hello from Saskatchewan Canada 🇨🇦. These are just like my Oma used to make. She would grate the potatoes and onion because we had no food processor. They were so good. Plus they were just as good cold the next day! After we put on our desired toppings we would roll them up like a crepe. Oh I can taste them now! It’s -40c today. So cold. Thank you so much for your videos.
I have got to try this week. When I buy potatoes by the sack there are always leftovers that otherwise will go bad. Same for the onions. This way I could make the pancakes and freeze them for other meals. Thanks for the recipe, you are a great teacher. Love your humor.
my mom was from the old country Austria and she made the most delicious potato pancakes it was hard work rubbing all the pancakes on a great and squeezing out the liquid by the time she put it all together Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo she topped it with sour cream and sugar and that was a meal in itself thank you Santa Baby
These are the best. My mom did the same recipe by hand and always ended up with scraped knuckles. I did the same until I used my processor. Wonderful! I add some garlic and some baking powder (2tsp) My kids would eats these every chance they get but not too good on calories!
For sure the grated potato is the way to go. I like the texture more. My grandma would fry them in bacon grease, maybe not the best idea but they sure did taste good.
When I was young child back in the 60s my mom would make these every once in awhile we had them with butter and regular pancake syrup they were great back then I thought that's what you were supposed to have with them Merry Christmas
Thanks for speeding up the boring bits, so many cookery channels show them peeling and chopping every single vegetable, you dont...so I subscibed, well done !!!
Never heard of a potato pancake by pulverizing the potatoes. I’m going to have to try this technique. Looks so good I can practically smell it already!
When I think of the times my mom would make these by hand grating on the fine grating side and she would have sore scraped knuckles for a few days. Then came the processor! As you say, what a fast meal. Would not do them any other way. I use baking potatoes or russet potatoes for more starch content. New potatoes doesn't work well. I also add garlic. Seeing these right now I want a plate with nothing else. Yum!
I watched your video and sure did enjoy the way you presented your potato cake video. They looked delicious, right along with the rest of the other things you had on the table. Great European meal I love everything you put on your table. Wishing, I could have a plate of it right now. Thank you for your video and. God Bless you and your family
I finally found someone who puts their potatoes in a food processor!! Thank you!! I also saw that some people ear there's with apple sauce. My nonna served with sour cream. grazij! 🙏
I think it depends on your heritage, what kind of topping you use. I think the sour cream is more of a latke topping, potato pancakes and latkes are almost the same thing. I like em with apple sauce. Some people use maple syrup. I like the shredded potatoes, I like the texture.
When I was taught from Czech background and then we would have a breakfast meat and some times scrambled eggs then we put on a maple syrup that was made in the kitchen so it would be warm too! Oh the good old days I wish my family was around and then we could eat my moms (so I didn’t have to cook!) I never had it with sauerkraut but it sure sounds good to me. My folks were born in the early 20’s during the depression and my dads family was city people but my Czech side just loves this-it’s close to Poland. My and my family just loves sour cabbage and big fluffy dumplings. If you haven’t heard of them then let me know and if you have I’d love to see how you make them. Believe this or not but its true. I honestly did a head count of all 6 of my children as we left Summer Bible School it’s about 40-45 minutes from my house and we farmed and my husband also worked for a logger on the farm next door. There was only one serving left and he threatened to eat if he was home first. So I guess I didn’t hear my daughter get out even though the kids but all kept quiet and then I get home and my husband had beaten me home. As I get out of my car he asked me if I forgot anything and all I was thinking about was that cabbage and then he asked if I brought all the kids home and I was so disgusted about that question and we were having a disgusting conversation on my side and a smiling one from him so I went to prove as I’d done a head count and I was missing a child (I should have known it was too quiet on the way home). She ended up staying with her Uncle- my closest brother and played with her cousins. I was soo. embarrassed he’s never “forgotten” it and the other children tried to be left with their cousins too but that was Never repeated even for sour cabbage and dumplings... I would hide them and no more calls from the Pastor!!!!!!!!!
I grew up in the '50s in what is now Korea Town in downtown Los Angeles. All flavors of Eastern Europe immigrants escaping communism there. These were a once a week staple when it came to making a dinner or whatever. Every combination of methods, but ended up with the same product. Ours ( Austro-Hungarian or now called Czechoslovakia) came with applesauce, sour cream and (for the fussy children) a brush of powdered sugar.
I like how u wash them before u peel. I do the same wash all of my veggies before I peel for sanitation’s sake .very good I can eat from u sir. Love it will try👌
ManMan Santa I love you I love the way you cook I love your presentation and you’re making me hungry I’m not the real Santa but because I live in Miami Florida but I love potato pancakes I’ve never made them like this before just wondering can I make it the same way and put them in the oven or no maybe not because I guess it’s a bit too creamy I guess generally the way the other do it and he is more of a course yours is more of a creamy texture and which I’ve never had a before I’m gonna try it I’m hungry thank you
I learned how to make potato pancakes as a kid from my mom. I use the food processor because I don’t like to grate by hand. We used to grate a 10 lb bag of potatoes by hand. I don’t know a recipe. I never put the flour in the food processor. I also fry in bacon grease, adds flavor. I fry on a square cast iron skillet.
My Mom used to play with hers. Sometimes she put in cooked bacon. Called that a breakfast potato. They were great with a breaded pork chop from the oven.
Okay, you got me. I love potato pancakes. Oktoberfest is my favorite time of year. I would have these for breakfast with scrambled eggs and apple butter. Possibilities are endless . I like a little texture in the pancake so would it hurt if I did not process it as long , I'm too lazy to grate the potatoes by hand
I drain the grated taters in sieve in a bowl and drain most of the water but save the starch and add that to the taters and mix an egg into it instead of flour. So good
Yes on the garlic. And we always use our left over mashed potatoes. You don't have to use egg and very little oil. I grew up on corn bread and milk. Wast not want not.
Cooking that long changes the awesome taste of garlic. What I do is melt a stick of butter, add several cloves of garlic and puree the heck out of it. Then, just before you take the cakes out of the pan, give them a brush of that heavy duty garlic butter. ;-) Gives it a kick! ;-)
I made these for me and my 12 yo picky eater grandson. He ate 5 of them. I added about 2 Tbsp more flour than you did but they were really good. Thanks for the keeper recipe. Ymmmm
Kathy - I googled “gluten free potato pancakes from scratch” there was a recipe there that uses rice flour. This was a gluten free baking site. But for me, I don’t have the answer except via google. I hope this helps. Potato pancakes are so good and fun to make. Not much different from Latkes, same thing just a different texture of the potatoes. Good luck!
My grandmother made hers exactly the same in her vitamiser (no food processor back then). However, are we the only family on the planet that sprinkles sugar over them after they’re cooked ! Soooo Good, give it a try. Tomato sauce is good too.
Looks great that's a hardy meal there sir. Haha look Santa pigging out on potatoe pancakes lol Love it beats cookies .I have 2 questions for you sir first what kind of potatoes did you use baking potatoes or gold Yukon and garlic ??? Wife puts garlic guess if it fits your taste right. Also did you put anything into your sour kraut for flavor. My wife is German and she puts brown sugar and onions into her kraut. Does this matter in this dish because of the sweetness? Thanks for sharring were Definately gonna have these..
These are so similar to the recipe we use, we add a little baking powder and a little vegetable oil to the batter. Then this is really different, we put butter, peanut butter, and syrup. It ends up tasting like a caramel sauce. Then we've also put fresh chopped green chile with garlic.
Exactly the way my mother made them throughout my childhood. She always served them with homemade applesauce & sour cream….So good! 😋
Very similar to how I make these. My main problem is that when I'm done cooking, there aren't any pancakes. I tend to eat them as fast as I cook them.
As a Polish kid I learned to make these from my Polish Grandmother when I was 6 years old! Love em!
Made this 4 times already easy and delicious 😋
Been making these, for years. Recipe, like yours. Have a Polish background, & we always serve, warm, smothered in sour cream. Delish!

I want to cook this meal for my Dad, he's Dutch and Norwedian and I think he'd love it! THANKYOU.

I did the same until I used my processor. Wonderful! I add some garlic and some baking powder (2tsp)
My kids would eats these every chance they get but not too good on calories!
These look good; I’ll try a batch. I think I would still like the grated potato more than the processed type . I do love a good fried potato latke.
For sure the grated potato is the way to go. I like the texture more. My grandma would fry them in bacon grease, maybe not the best idea but they sure did taste good.

Nice to see Santa cooking a typical Hanukkah treat!
I found this this morning, made them this afternoon - - they are really great!!
Thanks for speeding up the boring bits, so many cookery channels show them peeling and chopping every single vegetable, you dont...so I subscibed, well done !!!
I am going to make this on the weekend. It looks really good! Ty for sharing your recipe with us! ♥♥
Never heard of a potato pancake by pulverizing the potatoes. I’m going to have to try this technique. Looks so good I can practically smell it already!
I was thinking the same thing, Pulverizing it is way easier than shredding.
I don't like them ground up like that, it's too much like a regular pancake. I like the texture of a grated potato and the crispy edges.
When I think of the times my mom would make these by hand grating on the fine grating side and she would have sore scraped knuckles for a few days.
Then came the processor! As you say, what a fast meal. Would not do them any other way.

My mom was Polish we ate theses. Alot i love them there so good .i like them with sugar on them

He is fast !! So, much energy !! Love the outfit too !!!
love your videooooooooooooooo... you have a great personality for a TV cooking show.
I'm watching this at lunch time. My mouth is watering. Thank you for the dinner idea.
These are perfect done in the processor or blender. My mom used to grate them finely and ended up with grated knuckles. I just add some garlic.
I just use instant mashed potatoes, not mixed up yet.

That was such a cute story! ;-) Thanks for putting a smile on my face. ;-)
Looks good but how did they do it before food processors?
I just made your potato pancakes. They were good but solid. I have not had that kind in a long time. Thanks for sharing. Mom liked them as well.
Good video and in well detail. How about if we use pancake mix. Gonna make in the morning.
Adorable video, humorous and interesting. Thanks

My mother used to make the best potatoes pancakes, we didn't have a good process er, so she grated the spuds, love them.
Looks delicious. My mom made something similar with leftover mashed potatoes.
0:22 You beat the processing power of my brain to eventually make the connection that you look like Santa.
Thanks for the recipe. I sure will have to make this. It looks so good. Happy holidays Santa!
Thank you Father Christmas,I am going to cook these for lunch with bacon and eggs.Thank you for sharing.🇦🇺
Love your sense of humor.
Thank you for the recipe, using a processor. I will have a quick meal, yeah! 🎉❤
I love cooking..and santa u clearly say recipe well..thanks for sharing this amazing pancakes 😉
Great cooking potatoes pancake, sir ! Thanks for sharing.
I've been looking for a recipe like this.
I use the smallest side of an old box cutter so I guess the food processor makes it just like it but I add 1/4 eas. baking powder
My uncle used to cook them that way. He was Lithuanian, though.
My mom made very good potato pancakes with applesauce yes we're from Germany 👍🎄
Ok
Polish people eat them with a dollop of sour cream. I substitute unflavored yogurt.
I like how u wash them before u peel. I do the same wash all of my veggies before I peel for sanitation’s sake .very good I can eat from u sir. Love it will try👌
What blade did you use on the processor. ?
I'm going to try these but I'd definitely use 1 tsp salt. Love your presentation.
Thank you brother brought me back to the days when my grandma was growing up she made the best great show bro
Best video great job Santa. A pleasure to watch.😀
ManMan Santa I love you I love the way you cook I love your presentation and you’re making me hungry I’m not the real Santa but because I live in Miami Florida but I love potato pancakes I’ve never made them like this before just wondering can I make it the same way and put them in the oven or no maybe not because I guess it’s a bit too creamy I guess generally the way the other do it and he is more of a course yours is more of a creamy texture and which I’ve never had a before I’m gonna try it I’m hungry thank you

Can’t wait to make these , may I say you make a great Santa 🎅 just had to say from Queensland Australia 😁
I guess now we all know what Santa does when he is not making toys.
This makes me so hungry! Just like my mom used to make.
I know one popular actor from hunger games that might be interested in those
Okay, you got me. I love potato pancakes. Oktoberfest is my favorite time of year. I would have these for breakfast with scrambled eggs and apple butter. Possibilities are endless
. I like a little texture in the pancake so would it hurt if I did not process it as long , I'm too lazy to grate the potatoes by hand
My polish dad made ours and crated them yum
Can you use less oil in a non stick pan?
Can you freeze the potato pancakes
FANTASTIC JOB!!!!!!
I enjoy your enthusiasm and fun attitude! Thank you for your great video!
If you wait until the oil is fully hot enough the first four pancakes won't be less crispy.
I drain the grated taters in sieve in a bowl and drain most of the water but save the starch and add that to the taters and mix an egg into it instead of flour. So good
Thank you soooo much Sata...this recipe sounds delicious .😇❤🎅
Yes on the garlic. And we always use our left over mashed potatoes. You don't have to use egg and very little oil. I grew up on corn bread and milk. Wast not want not.
Santa making lakies, that's awesome, happy chrismuka 😉😉
PERFECT recipe 😋
Thank you very much. God bless you!
Garlic definitely! I'm also surprised you did not use any baking powder! I will try this but I will also used garlic and plenty of it!
Yes, I agree about the baking powder, and we add a little canola oil to the batter.
Garlic in platski,! never!
Cooking that long changes the awesome taste of garlic. What I do is melt a stick of butter, add several cloves of garlic and puree the heck out of it. Then, just before you take the cakes out of the pan, give them a brush of that heavy duty garlic butter. ;-) Gives it a kick! ;-)

Did you cook the potatoes?
Looks great
Thank you so much for the recipe.....looks good....a bit like yourself
Looks so good
And easy
Around here we eat them with cottage cheese and apple sauce. That's the way German Grandma Margaritt made them.
My wife grew up eating them with sliced peaches.
A Excellent Video.. Highly Recommended.. Thank You Very Much For Sharing..
I would use the shredding disk on the food processor so that
T the pancakes have some texture
Oooh, yum. Haven't seen sausage like that for about 25yrs. Potato pancakes are good w mackeral patties, too.
My mom made them using an old box grater and they turned out fine. I guess I'm lazier than she was cause I use a blender!
I just made these and forgot the onion… now I know they didn’t taste like my Dad’s!! thank you for the this video!!!!😊
Can the eggs be subbed with something else?
Potato pancakes is very tasty and delicious Recipe 👍
Thanks Santa I learn some thing everyday .
I smell you at smell a vision .
Cool picklets that are potato fritters.

Thanks very much indeed for this.
Much love of the potato.
Happy .
Oh you pulled out the bangers & sour pickled cabbage.Nom Nom
Wheres the pork knuckle.

I like spreading a Sour Cream/Cream Cheese mixture on mine to eat them with. Green onions mixed with the sour cream/cream cheese too.
what kind of food processor used?
Those look fantastic and I love your video thank you thank you thank you
Love it......great personality
These are so similar to the recipe we use, we add a little baking powder and a little vegetable oil to the batter. Then this is really different, we put butter, peanut butter, and syrup. It ends up tasting like a caramel sauce. Then we've also put fresh chopped green chile with garlic.
Santa I love your outfit! Will definitely be making potato pancakes! Mmmmm!
I like the soft ones. I think they are the best.
