Potato and Feta Patties

I know these aren't the prettiest snacks in the world, but they sure are delicious. I love feta cheese and adore anything with potatoes (I'm a carbohydrate addict) so I found these patties to be absolutely perfect.

If you are looking for a great tasting, no-hassle appetizer or snack then this recipe is for you.

Enjoy and happy cooking :)


Ingredients:
1 lb potatoes
1 small onion
3 tsp parsley
1 1/2 cups feta cheese
1 cup flour
2 eggs
1 tsp coriander
salt and pepper to taste
3 tsp olive oil


First, grate the potato and onion and mix them together into a bowl. Next, squeeze the water out of the potato and onion mix with your hands -- I squeezed a handful at a time and transferred the squeezed mixture into a second bowl.


Add the parsley, eggs, flour, cardamon and cheese. Season with salt and pepper and mix thoroughly. Do not add too much salt -- keep in mind that the feta cheese is pretty salty.


In a frying pan, heat the olive oil and add 1-2 large tablespoons of the batter at a time (make the batter into as neat a circle as you can). Heat each side for about 2 minutes until cooked through. Repeat with the rest of the batter, adding more olive oil if necessary.


Garnish with parsley.
