Method:

Wash, peel and grate the potatoes finely. Finely chop or grate the onion. Both can be done in a food processor for convenience. Combine the processed potato and onions, and mix in the remaining ingredients, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

Preheat a frying pan on a medium heat and add just enough olive oil to cover the base of the pan. When olive is hot, add mixture a tablespoon at a time to the pan, forming small individual patties. Cook both sides until golden, and patties are cooked in the middle.

Serving
Serve hot sprinkled with garlic sauce and topped with sour cream.

Serves 6-8.
