Potato crepes /pancakes; tasty, sweet, savoury and spicy
And most importantly quick and easy to prepare
Potato crepes was first introduced to my family a few years ago , by our Indian friends.
It is quite easy to prepare , sweet, savoury and spicy to taste. You can also prepare it with leftover potatoes
In south asia, it is very common to see this crepes served as breakfast or alongside a full meal. It is actually known as Aloo Tikki and can be prepared in so many ways , depending on family preference .
I prepare mine like my regular Nigerian pancake but with the addition of boiled potatoes. This is one way you can introduce potatoes into your diet, if you must have it.
And my family like it stuffed just like in the photo below
Honestly, I am not a big fan of yellow potatoes, but this potato crepes made me a follower.
So if you’re like me or maybe you love potatoes, this potato crepes will surely get your taste bud rolling.
