🧂 Ingrediënten
- 2 large Russet potatoes(peeled and grated)
- 1 medium Shallot(finely grated)
- 1 tsp Salt(plus more for seasoning)
- 6 tbsp Vegetable oil(for frying)
- 150 g Cold smoked salmon(thinly sliced)

👨🍳 Instructies
- 1
Place the grated potatoes and shallot in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This step is crucial for crispy pancakes.
💡 Pro Tips: Don't skip squeezing out the liquid; it's key to achieving a crispy texture. - 2
In a bowl, combine the squeezed potatoes and shallot with 1 tsp of salt. Mix well.
- 3
Heat about 2-3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, drop about 1/4 cup portions of the potato mixture into the pan. Flatten them slightly with the back of a spoon to form pancakes.
💡 Pro Tips: Ensure the oil is hot enough before adding the potato mixture to prevent sticking and ensure crispiness. - 4
Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Remove the pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining potato mixture, adding more oil as needed.

While the pancakes are frying or cooling, prepare the toppings. In a small bowl, mix the sour cream or Greek yogurt with chopped dill and chives. Season with a pinch of salt if desired.

To serve, place a potato pancake on each plate. Top with a generous portion of smoked salmon, followed by a dollop of the dill and chive cream. Garnish with extra dill and chives, and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
💡 Pro Tips: Serve immediately for the best crispy texture.
💡 Pro Tips
- ✓For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of nutmeg or white pepper to the potato mixture.
- ✓If you don't have russet potatoes, Yukon Golds can also work, but russets tend to yield a crispier result.
- ✓Leftover potato pancakes can be reheated in a toaster oven or a dry skillet to regain crispiness.
