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
Directions
Step 1
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.
Step 2
Place the squeezed potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
Finely chop the green onions and parsley.
Step 4
Add the chopped green onions, parsley, flour, egg, salt, and black pepper to the grated potatoes. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Step 5
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 6
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.
Step 7
Cook the patties for about 4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 8
Once cooked, transfer the potato cakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve hot, garnished with additional chopped parsley if desired.
