Caramelized Onion-Potato Pancakes Recipe image

These are all my favorite things, carmelized onions, potatoes and corn. I rarely use the red onion and use a vidalia instead but the red would also add a nice color. I also most times use basil in place of the rosemary as it is a favorite too! This is lower in fat and a better for you potato pancake! From a fitness website.

Time 20m

Yield 8 pancakes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 baking potatoes, baked and chilled
nonstick cooking spray
1 red onion, julienned (I use yellow sweet like a Vidalia)
1 red bell pepper, julienned
1/2 cup corn kernel
3 fresh garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped
2 egg whites
salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Peel the cold potatoes carefully with a paring knife and gently grate them with the coarse side of a cheese grater and set aside.
  • Lightly spray a sauté pan with nonstick cooking spray over medium-high heat.
  • Sauté the onions and peppers for about 5 minutes until the onions begin to brown. Add the corn, garlic and herbs and cook 2 to 3 minutes longer.
  • Set aside to cool.
  • Place the potatoes, vegetables, egg whites, salt and pepper in a medium size bowl and gently fold together.
  • Taste, adjust the seasoning, and form into eight 2" patties.
  • Place a non-stick griddle, skillet or lightly sprayed sauté pan over medium heat and toast each side of the cakes golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes.
