Instructions

  1. Peel the potatoes and grate them finely. Place the grated potato in a clean tea towel and squeeze hard to remove as much water as possible.
  2. Grate the onion and mix it with the potatoes in a bowl. Add the eggs, flour, salt, pepper and parsley, then mix until you have a smooth mixture.
  3. Shape small patties about 6 cm across and lightly coat them in breadcrumbs.
  4. Heat the oil in a deep pan to 170 °C. Drop in a few fritters at a time and fry for about 4 minutes per side, until a nice golden colour.
  5. Drain them on kitchen paper, season lightly and serve straight away, while hot.

Variations and tips

Oven version. Place the oiled fritters on a tray and bake for 20 minutes at 200 °C, turning them halfway through, for a lighter version.
