Asian-German

Have you heard of Kartóffelpuffer? The kartóffelpuffer is a traditional German potato pancake that is usually served at Christmas time. Well, this is my mash-up of that pancake with some ingredients from traditional Chinese Scallion Pancakes (葱油饼)

This is probably one of my favorite mashups of my and my husband’s cultures, it’s also one of my kids’ all-time favorite sides. I use the basics of the German potato pancake and replaced onions with scallions, then I added fish sauce and mushroom bullion to add an amazing umami flavor.
