Ingredients

How to make it

  • Peel potatoes and grate on a box grater. Squeeze out all moisture by placing the potatoes in a cheesecloth or kitchen towel and squeeze out all excess moisture.
  • Combine the grated potatoes with the mashed potatoes. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon of pepper. ( caramelized onions are a nice addition to potatoes if you choose! ). Set aside.
  • In another bowl, combine the rest of the ingredients for the cheese filling.
  • Take about a ¼ cup of potato mixture and form into a patty. Place about a 1½ teaspoon of the cheese filling and place into the center of the patty. Fold the potato mixture over the cheese filling, shaping it into an oval shape.
  • In a nonstick skillet, heat about 2 Tablespoons of oil (and butter if you choose) and add the pampushki. Fry over medium heat, about 5-7 minutes per side, until golden brown.
  • Drain on paper towels
  • These are delicious served with fried pork chops and onions or sauerkraut and a nice rich brown gravy. Enjoy!!
