fast but fancy potato pancakes wrap to perk up your lunch for an all day rollercoaster
When I was a kid, buttery mashed boiled potato wrapped in Persian flatbread was often my school lunch. Nowadays most kids turn up their noses at basic sandwiches and I am sure this recipe can turn a standard sandwich into a fancy wrap to perk up your child’s lunch.
