Swedish Potato Pancakes With Pork Raggmunk Med Flask Recipes

SWEDISH POTATO PANCAKES (RAGGMUNK)

Steps:

• Peel, rinse and grate the raw potatoes into a bowl of very cold water. (If you're starting this the night before, cover bowl and refrigerate potatoes in the water til morning.).
• Drain potato shreds in a wire mesh strainer or colander and using your hands, press as much moisture out as possible. Cover with a paper towel and set aside.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, pepper and one cup of the milk to make a smooth batter.
• Add the grated onion, eggs and remaining milk, if needed to make a slightly thin batter. Whisk until combined.
• Stir the potato shreds into the batter.
• Heat griddle or large frying pan to about 350°F and rub the griddle with a thin coat of canola oil (I use a paper towel to do this & you may need to reapply between each batch).
• When oil is hot, pour 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the griddle and cook until golden on the bottom. Flip pancake over and cook until golden on that side.
• Serve with sour cream & chives or lingonberry jam.

RAGGMUNK - SWEDISH POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• Fry the bacon in large frying pan over medium heat until crisp, then transfer slices to paper towel to remove excess grease. Drain off all but 1 tablespoons of bacon fat from pan.
• Whisk together the milk, egg, flour, and salt into a thin batter. Peel and then coarsely grate potatoes directly into batter. Stir to combine (Note: if batter seems thin, add additional flour in tablespoon increments until mixture holds together and is the consistency of thick yogurt).
• Raise heat under frying pan to medium-high. Use a 1/4-cup measuring scoop to pour batter into small pancakes, about three inches in diameter; press each one lightly with spatula to spread thin and then fry quickly in bacon fat until golden, flipping once. Remove and place between sheets of paper toweling until ready to serve.
• Serve with bacon and lingonberries, cranberry sauce, or any other whole-berry preserve.
