01
Step 1
Start by combining the potatoes, onions, eggs, flour, baking powder, and lemon juice in a big bowl. Add a pinch of nutmeg, salt, and black pepper to season everything well. Once mixed, shape the mixture into about a dozen evenly sized patties.
02
Step 2
Heat some vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, carefully add a few patties at a time, making sure not to crowd the pan. Cook them for about 7 to 10 minutes, flipping once, until they’re golden brown and cooked through.

Step 3
As each batch finishes, transfer the patties to a baking sheet lined with paper towels to soak up any excess oil. Keep cooking the rest of the patties the same way, then serve warm and enjoy!
Why you’ll love it
These patties are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, making them a perfect comfort food. They are easy to make and use simple ingredients you probably have at home. Everyone will enjoy their satisfying crunch and mild flavor.
How to serve
Serve these patties with a side of fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a balanced meal. They also pair well with ketchup, sour cream, or a tangy yogurt dip. Great as a snack or a side dish.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in a skillet to keep the outside crispy, rather than using a microwave which can make them soggy. You can also freeze uncooked patties and cook them later.
