Cheese & Potato Pancakes

"These are great with smoked cheese but also work with any other hard cheese. Makes a nice snack. I got it from a cheese guide leaflet. It's lovely served with a poached egg."

  1. Enjoyed by all! The first batch was not very pretty. I wasn't thinking and did not use a teflon-coated pan, man those suckers stuck to the skillet. Anyways, batch 2 was done in a non-stick pan and though they weren't the prettiest potato pancakes, they were very good. These are the first I've had or made that had cheese. I used a smoked gouda. Thanks!!
     
  2. We enjoyed these very much. I made them using Yukon gold potatoes and smoked gouda and parsley picked from the garden! Thanks, Sylvie!
     
  3. Everyone loved these & gobbled them allll up! I used gouda. I was thinking the onion needed draining more than the potatoes but they came out perfect & wonderful. Thank you!
     
  4. These were good pancakes. They held together well without there was egg used but the cheese probably helped. I used a mature Cheddar instead of the smoked cheese
