Cooking tips

  • Squeezing out as much moisture as possible after salting the potato shreds is crucial for a crispy texture without sogginess.
  • Using a small frying pan (about 20cm in diameter) makes it easier to create a thick layer of cream sauce and flip the pancake.
  • Before flipping, slide a spatula underneath to ensure the potato shreds are firmly adhered. Take a deep breath and flip it in one swift motion to maintain its shape.
  • After cooking, check that there is very little oil left in the pan. Place a plate on top and carefully flip the pancake onto the plate.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a luxurious and unique appetizer to enjoy with wine.
  • Those who want a new style of potato pancake with a creamy filling instead of a traditional one.
  • Those who want to taste the fantastic harmony of savory pollack roe and sweet, rich leek cream.
