Potato Cakes

I had a load of potatoes that needed using up, so I looked for something different to do with them other than the usual boiling/roasting. I’ve not made potato cakes before and fancied having a go. I used this recipe for German potato pancakes. And was happy with the result. Simple and tasty!
