Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
Instructions
Peel the russet potatoes and shred them using a box grater. Place the shredded potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded potatoes, flour, egg, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Heat 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture for each cake and shape it into a flat patty with your hands.
Working in batches, place the potato cakes in the skillet, ensuring they do not touch. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
Add more butter and oil to the skillet as needed for subsequent batches.
Once cooked, transfer the potato cakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the galettes de pommes de terre immediately, garnished with additional chopped parsley, if desired.
