INGREDIENTS
- 2 large potatoes about 1 lb.
- 1 egg
- 1 cup grated Parmesan + extra 1/2 cup for dredging
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped chives or scallion
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp. salt or to taste
- 1/2 tsp. pepper or to taste
- 3 tbsp. olive oil for frying
INSTRUCTIONS
- Cook the potatoes in gently boiling water until tender, about 20-25 minutes, depending on the size. Let them cool down completely. Peel.
- Place the potatoes in a medium mixing bowl and mash well using a potato masher.
- To the same bowl, add the egg, Parmesan, parsley, chives, flour, salt, and pepper. Mix everything well.
- Scoop up about a 1/2 cup of the potato mixture and form it into a patty.
- Place about a 1/2 cup of Parmesan into a shallow dish. Roll the patties in the parmesan to coat.
- Heat up some olive oil in a large, non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the potato patties, and fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until they turn golden brown.
