Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Russet potatoes
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 large Egg
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 2 tablespoons Parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and grate them using a box grater. Transfer the grated potatoes to a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
Place the squeezed potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop the green onions and parsley.
Add the chopped green onions, parsley, flour, egg, salt, and black pepper to the grated potatoes. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of the potato mixture and form it into a patty. Carefully place the patty in the hot oil. Repeat with the remaining mixture, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Cook the patties for about 4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Once cooked, transfer the potato cakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve hot, garnished with additional chopped parsley if desired.
