Potato-y comfort

I (Alexa) was feeling like comfort food tonight, AND we had some potatoes that we had to use before they went bad, so I made a jumbo potato pancake.

I grated 2 potatoes, 1 onion, and 3 carrots in the cuisinart, mixed in 2 eggs, some panko, 2 chopped scallions and salt and pepper. Then I fried it up in a large heavy-bottomed skillet for about 15 minutes, until the bottom was nice and browned.

The question is: How does one flip such a beast of a potato pancake? The trick is to slide it onto a large plate, cover the plate, flip it over, then slide it back into the pan so the other side can cook.

For a different shape potato pancake (and another video), check out THIS post, on Chanukah latkes.
