Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Peel the russet potatoes and grate them using a box grater. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes with the eggs, all-purpose flour, finely chopped green onions, minced parsley, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until well combined.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Scoop about 3 tablespoons of the potato mixture into your hands and form it into a patty. Carefully place the patty into the hot skillet.
Flatten the potato cakes slightly with a spatula and cook until golden brown and crispy on each side, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Repeat with the remaining potato mixture, adding more oil to the skillet as necessary.
Once cooked, transfer the potato cakes to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Serve the potato cakes warm as a side dish or as an appetizer with your favorite low-sodium dipping sauce.
