Time 30m

Yield 24 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large baking potatoes
2 egg whites
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Safflower oil for frying
6 tablespoons pressed caviar
1/4 cup finely slivered red onion

Steps:

  • Peel the potatoes; then shred them. Drain potatoes to remove excess liquid. In a bowl, combine the potatoes with the egg whites. Add the flour and salt and pepper, and toss to mix well. Pour 1/8 inch of oil into a large skillet, and heat over medium-high heat until hot.
  • Press 1 tablespoon of the potato mixture to form each pancake. Working in batches, add the pancakes to the oil, and fry until golden brown, about 30 seconds a side. Remove the pancakes from the oil with a slotted spatula, and place on paper towels to drain. Spread 3/4 teaspoon of the pressed caviar over each pancake, and sprinkle with a few of the slivered onions before serving.
