These Stuffed Potato Pancakes are a delightful combination of creamy mashed potatoes filled with a savory mixture of buckwheat, boiled eggs, and onions. Crispy on the outside and filled with flavor, they make a satisfying meal or snack.

Ingredients

Scale

Filling:

  • 2 cups cooked buckwheat
  • 2 boiled eggs, diced
  • 1 raw egg
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped

Potato Dough:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 6 cups mashed potatoes (about 2 lbs)
  • 1 tablespoon salt

For Frying:

  • Olive or vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: Dice the onion and sauté it in a large skillet with 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat until golden brown. Add the boiled, diced eggs and cooked buckwheat to the skillet. Stir to combine and remove from the heat. Season with salt if desired.
  2. Make the Potato Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes with the raw egg. Mix well. Gradually add the flour, stirring until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
  3. Form the Pancakes: Scoop out even portions of the dough using an ice cream scoop. Flatten each portion into a patty, keeping your hands floured to prevent sticking. Place a tablespoon of the buckwheat filling in the center of each patty. Fold the patty over to seal the edges, forming a pancake shape. Flatten slightly for even cooking.
  4. Fry the Pancakes: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add enough oil to cover the bottom. Fry the pancakes for 4-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown. If the pancakes brown too quickly, reduce the heat.
  5. Serve: Serve the stuffed potato pancakes warm with a dollop of sour cream.
