Scallion Potato Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lightly drizzle the kale with canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Lay on a baking sheet in a single layer, and bake until just crisp, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Reduce the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, mix the onions, potatoes, egg and 3 tablespoons of the flour in a large bowl until combined. If the mixture feels very wet, add a little more of the flour.
• Heat 1/2 inch canola oil in a large high-sided saute pan over medium heat until it begins to sizzle. Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon of the potatoes per pancake into the pan, spreading into a 2-inch round with a fork. Cook until the bottom is browned, about 5 minutes, and then flip and cook 5 minutes more. Transfer to paper towels to drain and season with salt. Keep the pancakes warm on a wire rack set in a shallow baking pan in the oven.
• Combine the cheese, parsley and green onions in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper.
• Place the pancakes on a serving platter or cutting board, top each with a dollop of the cheese, and garnish with the kale chips.

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/2 pounds chopped peeled sweet potatoes, 1 bunch scallions (cut into 2-inch pieces), 6 crushed garlic cloves and 1 tablespoon fresh thyme in a bowl. Drizzle with 1/4 cup olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss. Place on a sheet of foil and fold up. Grill over low heat until the potatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oil in non-stick skillet. Have other ingredients prepped before shredding potatoes as they will discolor. Shred potatoes and immediately combine with scallions and egg. Season mixture with salt and pepper. Scoop a heaping tablespoon of potato mixture into skillet and flatten with back of spoon. Continue cooking four pancakes at a time. When pancakes are brown flip to other side and continue to brown. Remove to paper towels to drain and season with salt.

Steps:

• Put flour on a board; make a well in the center and add the water; mix into a soft, smooth dough and divide into 2 portions.
• Roll each portion very thin.
• Brush each with 1 tablespoon of oil; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt.
• Spread half the scallions evenly on each sheet.
• Roll each portion up like a jelly roll; coil it up so it's lying flat on the board in a spiral.
• Flatten with a rolling pin until it is 7-inches in diameter.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a small saute pan; add the cakes, one at a time, and fry 2 minutes on each side.
• Cut each cake into 8 wedges (I use a pizza cutter) and serve.

Steps:

• Combine potatoes, scallions, flour, egg and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until very hot. Add potatoes; flatten into an even layer. Cook underside for 5-8 minutes, or until golden brown. Slide pancake onto a plate; invert onto another plate. Add remaining tablespoon oil to skillet. Slide pancake, browned side up, back into skillet. Cook for 5 minutes more, or until golden brown and tender. Cut potato cake into wedges and serve with sour cream and applesauce. Garnish with minced scallions.
