Peel the potatoes and grate them using a box grater. Transfer the grated potatoes to a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, crumbled feta cheese, egg, flour, parsley, green onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the batter comes together.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the batter and shape it into a small patty. Carefully place the patty in the hot skillet. Repeat with remaining batter, cooking 3-4 fritters at a time without overcrowding the pan.
Cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Use a spatula to flip them carefully.
Transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve warm with a dollop of sour cream, tzatziki, or your favorite dipping sauce.
