INGREDIENTS:

4 large russet potatoes, peeled and grated

1 beaten egg

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons butter, melted

Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional: Wrappers for a creative twist (like tortillas or lettuce leaves)

DIRECTIONS:

Prepare Potatoes:

Peel and grate the russet potatoes. You can use a box grater or a food processor for this step.

Place the grated potatoes in a bowl and cover them with cold water. Let them soak for a few minutes.

Parboil Potatoes:

Transfer the grated potatoes to a pot and cover them with water.

Bring the water to a boil and let the potatoes cook for about 3-4 minutes until they are slightly tender. Be careful not to overcook.

Drain and Squeeze:

Drain the parboiled potatoes and let them cool for a bit.

Use a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to squeeze out excess moisture from the potatoes.

Mix Ingredients:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes with the beaten egg, all-purpose flour, melted butter, salt, and pepper.

Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated …
