- 400 g potatoes 2 medium-sized
- 100 g shredded cheese
- 50 g starch
- 1/2 tsp salt

Shape and Stuff
Take about 70g of potato dough and roll it into a ball. Flatten it with your palm, place some of the 100g shredded cheese in the center, and wrap it with the dough. Roll it back into a ball, then gently flatten it into a patty shape.
Pan-Fry the Pancakes
Heat a pan over low heat and brush it with 1 tbsp cooking oil. Place the prepared pancakes into the pan. Cook slowly, flipping occasionally, until both sides are golden brown and the cheese inside has melted. Serve warm.
