Mushroom Stuffed Hash Browns- Draniki (Belarus) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

Mushroom filling
1 ounce dried wild mushrooms, blend (or a handful of fresh mushrooms)
1/4 cup minced red onion
1 teaspoon dill
salt
pepper
Draniki
1 1/2 lbs potatoes, peeled
1/4 cup flour
1 egg
1/4 cup soymilk (or milk of choice)
salt
pepper
vegetable oil, for frying

Preparation

Rehydrate dried mushrooms according to package directions. Mince and add with onion to a pan with a little oil. Cook until soft. Add dill and salt and pepper. Remove from pan and set aside.
Shred potatoes using a grater, food processor, or mandoline. Add remaining ingredients and stir together.
Heat about a 1/4 inch layer of oil in a large skillet over medium. Once oil sizzles when you drop a bit of potato in it, begin cooking. Spoon in draniki batter and flatten with a spoon.
Add a small spoonful of the mushroom mixture. Top with more draniki batter.
Cook until browned and no longer sticks to the bottom of the pan (this should take several minutes). Flip and cook on the other side. Hold in a warm oven while the rest of the drakini are cooked. Serve hot with sour cream.
