We are on the fifth day of this breakfast theme around the world and today I bring you a dish from Ukraine. It is bordered by Russia and so they have many common dishes. This Deruny or potato pancakes are known as Draniki in Russia. Usually made with grated potato and seasoned, these soft pancakes are served with sour cream. Potatoes are grated in a fine mesh and so you can even grind it in a mixer.
The original recipe had eggs and I just skipped them. Added an extra tbs of maida to bring the batter together. These pancakes also has onions in it. Some times grated garlic is also used. This is an authentic recipe and I am so happy that I found it. As I didn’t have sour cream, I served it with a cup of curd. It was nice. Next time I will try grating the potatoes instead of grinding to give it some texture.

Looks like mini Uthappam. Dosa and uthappam are famous it seems. Just that they have different names in each and every country.
Look at the photo, i thought it was Ottapam, Different pancake and sounds yummy.
Very interesting potato pancakes. They look delicious.
These pancakes must have tasted great with curds too.
That is a very tempting pile of pancakes, Gayathri.
