“My older daughter loves to grate things, so we decided to make potato pancakes for brunch,” explains Josie A.G. Shapiro. “We only had sweet potatoes in the house, so I thought spicing them up with an impromptu masala accent might be fun—I’m always trying to sneak new flavors to my children. The eggs were for more protein and the arugula for beauty and bite.” Serve the stacks individually, or arrange them on a large platter, family-style.
Ingredients
- 1 sweet potato, peeled and shredded
- 5 large eggs, divided
- 1/4 tsp. Eden Organic Ground Coriander*, divided
