Main Ingredients- 3 medium potatoes
- 1 egg
- 2/3 block firm tofu (approx. 200g)
- 1 1/3 cups mozzarella cheese
Seasoning & Others- 1/3 to 1/2 Tbsp salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1/3 to 1/2 Tbsp salt
- Pinch of black pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, peel the 3 medium potatoes and slice them thinly, about 2-3mm thick. Thin slices ensure the potatoes cook through nicely and provide a pleasant texture.
Step 2
In a bowl, season the potato slices with 1/3 to 1/2 Tbsp salt and a pinch of black pepper. Crack in 1 egg and mix everything well, ensuring each potato slice is coated with the egg mixture. This step adds richness and helps the pancake hold its shape.
Step 3
Crumble 2/3 block (approx. 200g) of firm tofu using the back of a knife or your hands. Then, thoroughly squeeze out as much water as possible using a cheesecloth or paper towels. Removing excess moisture from the tofu is crucial for a non-soggy and delicious pancake.
Step 4
Heat a lightly oiled pan over medium heat. Arrange the egg-coated potato slices in a circular pattern, creating the base of your pancake. This is the first step in shaping your delicious dish.
Step 5
Generously sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the potato base. Then, evenly spread the squeezed tofu on top of the cheese, followed by another layer of mozzarella cheese. Finally, cover the entire filling with the remaining potato slices to complete the pancake shape. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Be mindful of the heat to prevent burning!
