Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium golden potatoes
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 stalks green onions
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Wash and peel the golden potatoes. Grate the potatoes using a box grater and place the grated potatoes in a large bowl.
Remove excess moisture from the grated potatoes by wrapping them in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeezing out as much liquid as possible.
Finely chop the green onions and fresh parsley. Add them to the bowl with the grated potatoes.
Add the large egg, all-purpose flour, garlic powder, and ground black pepper to the bowl. Mix everything together until well combined.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture and form into a small patty. Place the patty in the hot skillet. Repeat the process with the remaining mixture, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the cooked fritters from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the potato fritters warm, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired.
