My mom used to make this potato pancake for me as a child. I can remember it vividly. The potato cakes with onions in it, and she served it with applesauce. Thanks Mom I Love You......

Yep! Me too! I can actually taste them with the memory of them..I was a 1960s child.

Mom used to cook these for me as a kid.Im an old geezer now & wanted some of these but didn't know how to make them.After watching 3-4 vids on how to make these I tried your method. Hot dang,sooo glad I did and now that I know I'll be making them much more often.Thank you for you video.It made me so happy to have those memories back again.They were delicious. Thx again.

We got potato cakes as a treat when I was a kid.

Watched several videos, I’ll be trying yours for sure. Best video on potato cakes I’ve seen. Thanks.

I just made these for the first time ever and a Little bit of advice for anyone, someone like me. Use less flour! Whole cup of flour in the egg and mashed potato mix was way way too much, to then put it on more flour. Also add more seasonings, spices flavoring to ur egg potato mix because all that flour easily takes it away and left mine really Bland. Super happy I found this easy recipe! Going to have fun tweaking it just a little to suit my family's needs. Thank you

I wish I read your comment before I made it. I completely agree. Less egg needs to be added so that less flour is needed. Absolutely more spices.

My Grandfather was orphaned at 4 after his Father died leaving his Mother with 9 children. It was the Great Depression . He found good employment as an adult but he never wasted a thing and when there were leftover potatoes you knew what was for snack that night. I sure loved those things. One of these days I might try to make me some now that I know how 🙃

Your original recipe was enjoyed by me, prepared by my papaw in the mornings post holiday visits beach home to WV. They are, in my opinion, the best way to enjoy potatoes. As a child, I only tolerated mashed potatoes, however these were my favorite way to enjoy potatoes and still is. Thanks for sharing this WV Post Holiday/Visitin’, papaw cookin’ for the young’ns memory.

No it was a gift from a friend and he got it in China. So cool that you noticed!

OK, just got through trying this. Like so many other things, experience counts for a lot and this one really does need some experience. Especially for someone who does not know how to cook (like me). I had some leftover mashed potatoes that I cooked with skin on because I prefer them that way and didn’t think it would make a difference for patties. I did pretty much everything as the video showed but had previously added some corn because I thought that would be good. The things that made it to the skillet would have changed the gorgon to stone. Those deft movements with the hand cannot be duplicated, I guess you just have to learn how to do it. They looked more like Apple uglies. Tried one on my son and he said, and I quote, that tastes wrong. Kind of sums up my cooking skills. Maybe I’ll stick with the microwave for a little longer.

☺

I would’ve swore this was another Great Depression idea my grandmother, and great Gma, came up with, but I guess not.😂 I never thought to ask her how she made them before she passed. I’ve tried making them numerous of times, but mine always fall apart, and now I see why. I’m glad I found your recipe, and look forward to trying it in the morning, it’s been almost 20yrs. Thank You

The basic recipe seemed a bit off, but I followed it anyway. It seemed like it was a lot of flour, and it was. All we tasted was the raw flour. Any ideas?

Why not get a longer handled spatula so you don’t burn yourself

I really like the recipe and your overall presentation is very nice but, you need to work on the audio. I know you're in a kitchen but it sounds like you're in a kitchen. Try a remote lapel style mic.
