Many gourmets are sure that the main ingredient for potato pancakes can only be potatoes.
In fact, there are other variations of the popular dish.
Instead of potatoes, you can use any other vegetable.
According to Yuliy Arkhipova, an expert in the field of cooking for the online publication Belnovosti, a chef and fourth-class baker, the ideal alternatives to nightshade are zucchini and carrots.
You can also make very tasty pancakes from these two vegetables.
Take three zucchini, remove the stems and wash them.
Next, grind the fruit using a grater, salt the resulting mass and leave it for 10 minutes.
While the grated zucchini is releasing juice, grate one onion and two garlic cloves.
Remove excess moisture from the zucchini mixture and mix this base with the other vegetables.
Add two raw eggs and 120 grams of flour to the resulting mixture.
After mixing again, you will get a dough from which you will get delicious potato pancakes.
Combine 250 grams of grated carrots with one raw egg.
Add 50 grams of flour to the carrot-egg mixture. Salt, pepper and mix the mixture, add a little lemon juice.
This dough will also make very tasty potato pancakes.
