My Dad cooked little at home, but when he did his signature dishes were always made with potatoes. Potato and onion soup, boiled baby potatoes served drizzled with copious amounts of pork fat and skwarki - crisp bacon bits, and his favourite, potato pancakes. The making involved a big mess, one that not even a two year old could pull off as efficiently as my Dad did, Mum complaining because she was always the one cleaning the kitchen after and all of us tucking into a big stack of fluffy in the middle and crisp on the edges Latkes.
This 5 ingredient version is just as good as I remember. Surprisingly good when served with a sprinkling of granulated sugar ( I use urefined Demerara) and thick Greek-style yoghurt they are a delicious treat. I can imagine them being as tasty with eggs, salmon or served with a Goulash stew or even a simple ground Bolognese sauce. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days, covered, and reheated in a pan or oven. —Martyna @ WholesomeCook
