Ingredients

  • 6 pieces Onion, young

  • 2 piece Egg, fresh

  • 1.5 cups Potatoes, white

  • 1 handful Breadcrumbs, dried

  • 0.25 teaspoons Spices, nutmeg, ground

  • pieces Salt, table

  • 1 spoon Oil, olive

  • 2 spoons Oil, vegetable oil, canola

Steps

  1. Clean and wash the spring onions. Leave about 2 cm of the green part on the stem, and discard the rest. Boil the spring onions in water for 5 minutes, then drain them well and chop them finely.

  2. In a bowl, add the mashed potatoes, eggs, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and the chopped spring onions. Mix the ingredients well with a spoon or spatula.

  3. Heat oil in a large pan. Shape the potato mixture into small patties (about 2 heaped tablespoons of mixture per patty) and place them in the hot oil. When they are golden brown on the bottom, carefully flip them with a spatula and cook the other side. Remove the cooked patties from the pan and keep them warm on a plate. Repeat the process until all the mixture is used.

  4. Serve the cooked patties as a snack with sour cream or as a side dish for meat or fish dishes.
