👩🍳 How to Make It
- Boil or steam the potatoes until tender, then mash them with a fork.

- Form the mixture into small patties, coating each lightly with gluten‑free flour.
- Pan‑fry the patties in a little oil over medium heat until golden and crispy on both sides.
- Serve warm, optionally topped with fresh herbs or a drizzle of vegan yogurt.
🍽️ Serving Suggestions
- Plate a stack of pancakes on a bed of mixed greens, drizzle with lemon‑yogurt sauce, and sprinkle fresh chives for a bright, balanced meal.
- Serve them alongside a spicy tomato salsa and a cool dollop of guacamole for a snack‑time fiesta that’s as fun to dip as it is to eat.
- Pair the pancakes with a hearty lentil soup or a creamy pumpkin bisque for a cozy, one‑plate dinner.
💡 Chef's Tips & Variations
- Swap regular potatoes for sweet potatoes or add a handful of roasted beetroot for a sweet‑earthy twist and a pop of color.
- Mix in fresh herbs like dill, parsley, or basil, and a pinch of smoked paprika to boost aroma and depth without extra effort.
- For a lighter version, coat the patties in almond‑flour or oat‑flour and finish them in a hot air‑fryer for extra crispness with less oil.
- Turn them into bite‑size appetizers by shaping mini patties and serving on skewers with a drizzle of tahini‑lemon dressing.
