Breakfast potatoes

'Taters

butter

salt/pepper/paprika to taste

*optional cheddar cheese

I just made this up for my brunch but all I did was boil whole potatoes and then dice them up into small cubes. (For time reasons I did this the night before) Then I heated the frying pan with some butter and sauteed them until golden brown with said spices :-) When all was done I set my oven on the lowest heat and sprinkled a generous amount of cheddar cheese. While the rest of brunch was cooking I let that sit warming in the oven and the cheddar was all melted over the potatoes. Yum.

blueberry pancakes

Blueberry Pancakes

1 cup flour

1 cup milk

2 teaspoons baking powder (1 sachet leveur chimique)

1 teaspoon sugar

1 pinch of salt

1 tablespoon oil

1 egg

Mix all the dry ingredients together. Add the beaten egg, milk and oil and slowly mix to get rid of most of lumps (the key is not to over mix it, the pancakes turn out rubbery - if there are a few lumps don't worry, they'll cook out).

Pour onto a hot greased pan and then add the blueberries (fresh or frozen) on top. Cover with a little bit of batter (so they don't burn when you flip the pancakes over). When bubbles burst and stay open flip the pancakes just once.

I try to make my batter ahead of time, I think they turn out fluffier that way, time for the baking powder to act? I'm not sure but whether you let it sit or start cooking 2 minutes after they're still yum yum!
