Watching mythical kitchen about hash browns and wondering if anybody have any ideas on how to make potatoes into other things that are extremely cheap. I usually have only potatoes and margarine at last 2 weeks before I get food stamps because it isn’t enough to cover basic food things.
Does anybody know any good ideas or recipes or something that does not require a lot of other one time ingredients? That’s really cheap on quantities, like spices, where it can last a while with it being really inexpensive.
Things I have is absolutely basic cooking skills and cooking appliances. Microwave oven and stove. I don’t have much of anything because and can’t afford anything
Anybody have any ideas or recipes or thoughts?
German reibekuchen or Polish placki. It is basically the same thing and delicious.
3 potatoes (1.5 pounds) 1 small onion 1 small egg 2 tablespoons flour 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Grate patatoes and onion, drain moisture, add egg and flower. Salt, pepper. Now you should have a nice batter. Fry the pancakes in the margarine on medium heat. I always fry three little pancakes at a time, size a little bigger than a burger. Takes a little time to cook the patatoes so don’t make them too thic, raw starchy patato isn’t a nice taste. The margarine should add some calories.
