Step by step instructions
Prepare the ingredients
Peel and grate potatoes: Peel and wash the potatoes. Grate them into a large bowl. Grated potatoes cook quickly and form the base of the fritters.
Chop onion and parsley: Finely chop the onion and parsley. These add flavor and freshness to the mix.
Mince garlic: Mince the garlic cloves. Garlic enhances the flavor profile of the meatballs.
Mix the ingredients together
Mix it all together: Add the chopped onion, minced garlic and chopped parsley to the bowl with the grated potatoes.
Add the eggs: Crack the eggs into the bowl and mix well. The eggs act as a binder and hold the mixture together.
Season and add the flour: Add salt, ground pepper and flour. Mix everything together until well combined. The flour helps bind the ingredients together and gives structure to the pancakes.
Cook the mixture
Heat the oil: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. The oil should be hot enough to sizzle when the mixture is added.
Form the patties: Drop spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the pan, flattening them slightly with a spoon. This ensures even cooking.
Cook until golden brown: Cook each side for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. This gives the pancakes a nice crust.
Bake to finish
Preheat oven: Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Transfer to a baking tray: Transfer the cooked chicken and potato balls to a baking tray. Baking ensures they are cooked through and adds extra crunch.
Bake until crispy: Place the tray in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until cooked through and the top is crispy and golden.
