Potato Parsnip Pancakes With Smoked Salmon Recipes

POTATO AND SMOKED SALMON PANCAKES WITH CREAMY DILL SAUCE

Steps:

• In large bowl, beat egg, 1/2 cup milk and 2 tablespoons of the yogurt. Stir in flour to make a thin batter.
• Shred potatoes and onion into batter. Stir in salmon.
• In 10- to 12-inch skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Using 1/4-cup measuring cup, scoop batter into skillet to make each pancake. Gently press down on top of each pancake with pancake turner to flatten. Cook 2 minutes on each side or until pancakes are golden brown and crispy. Add remaining tablespoon oil as needed.
• To make sauce, stir together remaining yogurt, 1 tablespoon milk and the dill. Season to taste with black pepper. Serve sauce with pancakes.

SIMPLE PARSNIP PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine parsnips, eggs, onion, olive oil, salt, rosemary, and black pepper together in a bowl until batter is combined and lumpy.
• Heat sunflower oil in a heavy frying pan over medium heat. Spoon batter into oil and fry until pancakes are brown and crispy on the edges, 6 to 7 minutes per side.

POTATO PANCAKES WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degree F.
• In a small bowl mix together sour cream, dill and salt until well blended and put in refrigerator.
• Heat butter in large skillet over medium low heat. Add onions to pan, stirring occasionally until onions are softened, then sprinkle with brown sugar, and continue cooking, stirring until onions are tender and golden brown. If onions are cooking too fast, reduce heat to low. Remove to a bowl to cool.
• While onions are cooking, grate potatoes. Squeeze potatoes in paper towels to release as much liquid as possible.
• Place potatoes in medium bowl and stir in egg, fennel seed, flour, salt, pepper and baking powder until well blended.
• Heat enough oil to cover bottom of large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Scoop approximately 1/3 cup portions of potato mixture into hot oil, flattening with the back of a spatula into 4" pancakes.
• Fry in oil until bottoms are golden brown, then flip over and fry until that side is done, keeping in mind that the first side will usually take longer to brown than the second.
• Remove to a plate lined with paper towels and keep warm in oven, and repeat procedure until batter is gone, adding more oil as needed.
• Place pancakes on plate, and divide sour cream mixture, then onions, then salmon evenly among pancakes.
• Serve hot.

POTATO-PARSNIP PANCAKES WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Mix crème fraîche, horseradish and 1 tablespoon parsley in small bowl. (Can be made 3 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)
• Preheat oven to 250°F. Coarsely grate potatoes and parsnips into medium bowl. Mix in onion, 2 tablespoons chives and remaining 1 tablespoon parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in egg.
• Divide potato mixture into 4 equal portions. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 potato portion to skillet; flatten to 5-inch round. Cook until golden brown on bottom, about 5 minutes. Turn pancake over and cook until brown on bottom and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to ovenproof platter and place in oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining 3 portions, adding 1 tablespoon oil to skillet for each pancake.
• Place 1 pancake on each of 4 plates. Arrange 3 salmon slices atop each. Top pancakes with dollop of crème fraîche mixture. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon chives and serve immediately.

POTATO PANCAKES WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Prepare potato pancake mix according to box instructions. Add parsley, salt and pepper, to taste. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a shallow non-stick pan. When oil is hot, spoon 1/2 potato mixture into pan and shape into large round pancake. Brown on both sides, making sure it gets crispy and golden brown, about 5 minutes on each side. Remove from pan and place on a paper towel to dry. When slightly cooled, spread sour cream on top, sprinkle red onion and lay the smoked salmon nicely on top. Garnish with dill and slice into 8 pieces (like a pizza).

POTATO GALETTES WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, then cut them lengthwise in long matchsticks, using the finest julienne blade of a mandoline. Spread the potatoes out neatly in one layer on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, roll the towel up, and squeeze lightly to dry the potatoes without breaking them up. Put the potatoes into a bowl and toss them with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a small (8-inch) omelet pan (a saute pan with sloped sides) over medium heat. Add half of the potatoes to the pan and press lightly with a large metal spatula to make the shreds lie flat. Cook them undisturbed for 5 minutes. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the butter around the edge of the pan and cook the potatoes for another 3 to 5 minutes, until nicely browned on the bottom. Loosen the galette gently around the edge with the metal spatula and flip it over. (Be careful! The oil and butter underneath are very hot!) Add another tablespoon of butter around the edge and cook the galette for 4 to 5 minutes longer, until the second side is nicely browned. With the metal spatula, transfer the galette to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside. Repeat with the rest of the potatoes and butter to make a second galette.
• Place the two galettes on a cutting board. Spread each galette with 2 tablespoons of the creme fraiche and a layer of smoked salmon, covering the galette completely. Sprinkle with minced chives and sprinkle lightly with salt. Use a large chef's knife to cut each galette into 6 wedges and serve hot.

PARSNIP PANCAKES WITH SMOKED FISH AND CAPER SOUR CREAM

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the sour cream with 2 tablespoons of the grated red onion, 1 tablespoon of the dill and the capers; cover and refrigerate.
• In a colander set in the sink, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of grated red onion with the parsnips and potato. Let stand for 15 minutes, then squeeze to remove any excess liquid.
• Transfer the parsnip mixture to a medium bowl and add the egg, flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly.
• Preheat the oven to 300°. Heat 1/8 inch of vegetable oil in a large cast-iron skillet.
• Drop rounded tablespoons of the pancake batter into the skillet, spacing them evenly and pressing lightly to flatten.
• Cook the pancakes over moderate heat until browned and crisp, about 4 minutes per side.
• Drain the pancakes on a paper towel-lined platter, then transfer them to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven.
• Arrange 4 pancakes on each plate.
• Place 1 1/2 to 2 ounces of the smoked fish and a dollop of caper sour cream alongside. Garnish with the remaining dill and minced red onion and serve.

SHREDDED POTATO PANCAKES WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Peel half the potatoes, grate them coarse (preferably in a food processor), and press them between several thicknesses of paper towel to remove any excess moisture. In a large heavy skillet heat 1/4 cup of the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking. In a bowl toss the grated potatoes with salt and pepper to taste, form them into 4 patties, and in the skillet cook the patties, tamping them down with a spatula, for 5 minutes on each side, or until the pancakes are golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the pancakes to paper towels to drain and keep them warm in a 200°F. oven. Make 4 more pancakes in the same manner with the remaining potatoes and oil and serve the pancakes with the smoked salmon and the sour cream.
