Draniki are a traditional dish of Ukrainian cuisine with deep roots in Eastern European traditions. Simple yet wonderfully aromatic, they are crispy potato pancakes fried to a golden brown. Their delicate flavor, complemented by creamy sour cream, creates a harmony of textures and shades, providing warmth and comfort to anyone who tries them. This dish is often prepared at home, especially in cold weather when something hearty and warming is desired. Draniki can be served as a standalone dish or as a side to meat or vegetables.
