Mom called those potatoe patties. I make potato pancakes in another variation. Add salt, about 1/4 tsp of salt per cup of dry Bisquick mix.

Mix up a batch of Bisquick for pancakes, maybe using beer instead of milk. Clean and grate a firm potato or two. Similarly, grate some onion, probably a fair amount of it.

Mix in the potato and onion into the Bisqick batter. Make panckakes. I like either honey or maple syrup on these.

JARVIS good eatin'!
