3/4 pound (1 large) russet
(baking) potato
2 slices of cooked lean
bacon, crumbled fine
2 tablespoons finely chopped
fresh chives
or green part of scallion
2 tablespoons olive oil
sour cream, if desired
Peel the potato, grate
it coarse, and press
it between several thicknesses
of paper towel
to remove any excess moisture.
In a bowl
stir together the potato,
the bacon, the
chives, and salt and pepper
to taste. In
a large heavy skillet heat
the oil over moderately
high heat until it is hot
but not smoking,
form the potato mixture
into 4 patties, and
cook the patties, tamping
them down with
a spatula, for 5 to 7 minutes
on each side,
or until the pancakes are
golden brown and
cooked through. Serve the
pancakes with the
sour cream. Serves 2. Enjoy!
