Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and chopped
- 3 tbsp parsley and cilantro, chopped
- 3 tbsp onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp cumin
- 1 tsp turmeric
- salt and pepper
- flour for coating
- oil for frying (olive oil recommended)
Instructions
- Peel, chop and boil potatoes in lightly salted water until they are tender but still firm. Drain then mash the potatoes with a potato masher or fork.
- In a bowl, combine the eggs, parsley and cilantro, onion, garlic, cumin, turmeric, and salt and pepper.
- Mix well then add to the reserved potatoes. Stir well to make sure the potatoes have absorbed all the flavors.
- Form 3” fritters and delicately toss them in flour so that they are lightly coated. Carefully dust off any excess flour.
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat about 2″ of oil over medium high heat. Add the fritters in batches. Once golden, flip and cook until both sides until golden and crispy.
- Drain on paper towels then enjoy!
Notes
No need to dip these fritters in eggs before coating them in the flour because they are moist enough to take on a light coating of the flour.
