The texture is golden and crispy on the outside, yet stays soft and creamy on the inside — perfect for a filling breakfast or brunch.

👩🍳 Instructions
- 1 Grate the potatoes, then squeeze with your hands or a clean cloth to remove excess water. This is important so the pancakes don't turn out soggy and can get nice and crispy when cooked.
- 2 In a large bowl, mix the squeezed grated potato with the cheddar cheese, scallions, and minced garlic. Stir until well combined.
- 3 Add the eggs, flour, salt, pepper, and powdered broth seasoning. Mix all the ingredients together until you have a thick batter that can hold its shape.
- 4 Heat a little oil or margarine in a nonstick pan over medium heat.
- 5 Scoop 2-3 tablespoons of batter onto the pan, then flatten slightly into a round shape about 1 cm (roughly 1/2 inch) thick.
- 6 Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crispy, then flip and cook the other side until evenly done and the cheese inside has melted perfectly.
- 7 Remove from the pan and drain briefly on paper towels to remove excess oil. Repeat until all the batter is used up.
- 8 Serve while warm, optionally topped with a sprinkle of scallions or a little extra shredded cheese.
💡 Tips
• Make sure to squeeze the potatoes really well until dry so the pancakes don't turn out soggy and can crisp up perfectly.
• Use medium-low heat so the inside cooks through without burning the outside.
• You can add chopped smoked beef or sweet corn kernels for a flavor variation.
• Serve immediately after cooking, as the crispy texture is best enjoyed while still warm.
