Potato Recipes! Wow, these root vegetables can be used in so many different ways in so many traditional German foods.
Below is a collection of my favorite recipes. Included are potatoe recipes to use as a side dish, such as Fried Potatoes or Bratkartoffeln in German.
Bratkartoffeln also make a delicious lunch as does Chunky Potato Soup. For breakfast, Potato Pancakes are a treat. Potato pancake recipes are also great for lunch and supper.
Then, of course, there are the German Potato Salad Recipes. You can have either a warm or a cold potato salad - both especially great with new potatoes. There's also one that uses sweet potatoes!
The all-time favorite potato dish is Potato Dumplings. They are always a treat and are usually served when company comes! Together with rouladen and rouladen gravy - YUMMY!
Don't forget to have instant potato flakes on hand in your cupboard as well. They're great to use as a thickener in soups!
Potatoes are such a versatile vegetable, available all year long. Healthy and economical, they're a staple to have on hand and one of the most common of all German foods.
Leftover potatoes? Try the Berliner favorite - Hoppel Poppel. It's one of my favorites as well.
