Instructions
- Rice the potatoes.
- Add the egg, onions, parsley or cilantro, cheese and pepper.
- Taste and add salt if not salty enough.
- Combine well and refrigerate for 2 hours before proceeding with recipe.
- Shape the potato mixture into'meatballs'.
- Dredge in flour, flattening slightly, and fry in hot oil (we use olive oil in Greece, but vegetable oil can be used instead).
- Drain on paper towels.
- Serve hot or warm.
- Note: Breadcrumbs can also be used to dredge the potato croquettes instead of the flour.
- This results in a crisper exterior.
