2 lb White Rose potatoes – I bet the Purple Vikings would work great!
6 tb Unsalted butter, clarified
2 lg Leeks *
1 ts Salt
1⁄2 ts Finely ground pepper
* white and green parts, cleaned and finely chopped This makes one big pancake, to be eaten by cutting into wedges and serving more as an accompaniment than a main course. Peel potatoes and soak in cold water for 30 minutes. Grate and squeeze out every bit of moisture by wringing the potatoes in dry dish towels. Heat 2 tablespoons butter in heavy frying pan; add leeks and saute until wilted. Season with salt and pepper, then add to potatoes and mix well. Heat remaining butter in a heavy skillet, preferably a nonstick one, and add potato-leek mixture. Flatten to make a pancake, then cover and cook about 5 minutes over medium-high heat. Turn pancake and cook until brown and crisp. Invert onto a serving platter and slice with serrated knife or pizza cutter into wedges.
