Zemiakové Placky

These yummy potato pancakes come from our Slovakian friend, Daniela Lečková. Serves 4.

8 potatoes (can use half zucchini)
2 eggs (may need more)
2 teaspoons marjoram
8 cloves of garlic, minced
black pepper (to taste)
salt (to taste)
paprika (to taste, perhaps 1 teaspoon)
4 tablespoons flour

  1. Grate the potatoes (and zucchini) into a big mixing bowl. 
  2. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.
  3. Heat olive oil in hot skillet. 
  4. Spoon potato mixture into skillet and flatten into pancakes. Cook like pancakes (although you need more oil than you do for pancakes).
Eat plain or with the condiment of your choice (sour cream, ketchup, cheese, etc.). You can also mix crumbled bacon into the batter, if you want.
