Preparation

Step 1

1. Rinse potatoes under cold water. Coarsely grate potatoes and onion using grater or food processor. Place in towel; twist to squeeze out all water.

2. Mix potato and yellow onion with eggs, ham, green onions, bell peppers and cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Heat griddle or non-stick pan with thin film of vegetable oil over medium heat. Drop approximately 2 Tbsp. potato pancake mixture onto griddle and flatten with spatula. Fry until golden, flip over and brown other side, about 4 minutes.

3. Drain on towel; serve immediately with sour cream.

For convenience, frozen hash browns can be substituted for the fresh Idaho® Potatoes.
