tips & Tricks for Perfect Llapingachos

  • Pack the patties tightly as you shape them to ensure that they don’t break while cooking.

  • Make sure you give the stuff potato portions the full time to chill in the fridge, otherwise the potato patties may lose their shape while cooking.

  • Have a plate/bowl of flour nearby to keep the potato patties well dusted to avoid them from sticking prior to cooking. While refrigerating, its best to heavily dust each side with flour.

  • Cooking the potato pancakes with the lid on is a great way to ensure the flour in the potatoes cook well, via the process of steaming.

  • Frying a test patty is a great way to get an idea and feel of the process before cooking the entire batch. Plus, it makes for a good snack as you cook.

  • Avoid over crowding the pan with patties, this will make flipping these delicate patties much harder.
