Sweet Potato Pancake

  1. Roast potatoes (skin on) until very tender, pass through a tamis after peeling and reserve.
  2. Mix all dry and liquid ingredients separately.
  3. Combine both and then fold on potato.
  4. Whisk until smooth.

Mustard Crème Fraiche

  1. Condition crème fraiche: With bowl and whisk, or in Kitchen Aid mixer, beat until smooth (no lumps!)
  2. Fold in mustard, using a rubber spatula, following with lemon juice, vinegar and seasoning. Store in refrigerator until ready for use, will last a few days.
  3. Note: When purchasing crème fraiche, look for a thicker product. The thicker your base, the better your final product will be.
