Potato Pancakes

A classic breakfast dish, with an Albert Bartlett twist...

Cooking PotMETHOD

  1. Cook the chorizo and onion by frying it off in a pan for a few minutes.

  2. Mix the mashed potato with the eggs, flour, milk, garlic, smoked paprika, salt and pepper together.

  3. Heat a pan with sunflower oil and a touch of butter. When hot, drop a heaped tbsp of the potato mix into the pan and flatten/shape. Cook both sides for a minute or so either side, until golden.

  4. Repeat this to make each pancake, although you may get around 4 in a pan at the same time (depending on the size of it)

  5. To make the cheese sauce:

  6. Heat up 200ml of skimmed milk on a low heat. Once heated, whisk in a tbsp flour. Keep whisking, ensuring lumps disappear. Continue to heat on a low heat.

  7. Add 50g of cheddar cheese and allow this to melt into the sauce, whisking around.

  8. Add 2 tbsp smoked paprika, some salt and pepper.

  9. Pour over the pancakes then top with the cooked onion and chorizo.
