      Potato cakes are amazing (though they're not the sweet kind of cake, more like a savory pancake). Put some butter and bacon between two slices of potato cake and boom, a delicious snack.
      Edit for clarification: turns out there are a lot of different potato cakes. The ones I'm thinking of are Irish style potato cakes.

    Actually we do almost same in Lithuania and it’s called kugelis. The difference is that we don’t add any flour and for softness of potato mass we add or a bit of hot milk or sour cream. You can bake it vegan just potatoes (of course with onion, salt and pepper), you can bake with chicken thigh or pork ribs or just potatoes but serve with smoked salmon and red caviar, or with cottage cheese sauce. Hej, normally we have a machine to grate potatoes so no need to do that by hands. Useful also for potato pancakes or potato sausages :)

    We have something very similar over here in Germany. Its name translates to "cauldron cake" and my grandma used to make it with fried Mett (basically a very salty, bacon-y(?) smoked sausage).
