Goat Cheese Potato Cakes

Serves 16

Great as a party appetizer or serve with a main course.  

You will need:

  • 3 white potatoes - peel and coarsely grated
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 6 scallions, thinly sliced (or green onion)
  • 2 garlic cloves - chopped
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon herbs de Provence
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 4 ounces goat cheese, softened
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup sour cream or creme fraiche

  1. Prepare items as outlined in ingredient list.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cheese, flour, milk, salt,
    pepper, herbs de Provence (may be lumpy)
  3. Add potatoes and all but 2 tablespoons of scallions and mix well.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large (8 to 10 inch) nonstick skillet
    over medium heat.
  5. Add half of the potato batter and spread evenly with a spatula.
  6. Cook until golden brown - shake pan occasionally to prevent
    sticking - takes about 15 minutes to cook.
  7. Place a dinner plate over the skillet and invert both so the potato
    cake falls, cooked-side up onto the plate.
  8. Slide potato cake back into  the pan and continue cooking until
    crispy - 10 to 15 minutes more.
  9. Remove potato cake from skillet.  Cover and keep warm in a 325F
    oven.
  10. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and repeat with the
    remaining potato batter.
  11. Add remaining scallions to sour cream.
  12. Cut each potato cake into 8 wedges and serve with the sour
    cream.


The potato cakes can be made 1 day ahead.  Cover and refrigerate.  
Reheat, wrapped in aluminum foil, in a 450F oven for 15 to 20 minutes.
