Old-fashioned potato cakes

Overview

Try the ancient potato cakes that your mother ate when she was a child. During the sweet potato harvest season, my mother bought a lot of them. This year’s sweet potatoes are particularly delicious. This has something to do with the weather. When the rain is just right, the sweet potatoes are particularly delicious, sweet and taste good. Buy small sweet potatoes home, put them in a cool place, let the starch transform, and then steam them to eat, they will be even sweeter. My daughter loves fried sweet potato chips very much, and she asked her grandma to make them for her today. Grandma said she won’t eat sweet potato chips today, so let’s eat them in a different way. The little girl was very pleasantly surprised. In fact, my mother is going to make sweet potato starch today and make some hash browns by the way. My mother said that when she was a child, sweet potatoes were the staple food and she ate enough. At that time, she made starch every day and made enough. Today, she does it just for fun, which is completely different from the past when she made a living from it. Ingredients: sweet potatoes and green onions Seasoning: salt pepper cooking oil Method:
