Crispy Potato Fritters

Yield: Approximately 20 fritters

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Wash and peel the potatoes, then julienne or shred them into thin strips (using a coarse grater if available) and place them in a large bowl.
  2. Add the flour and the roughly chopped rosemary needles, then mix thoroughly to combine the ingredients.
  3. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  4. Pour about an inch (a couple of fingers) of olive oil into a pan and heat it to 180°C (350°F).
  5. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the hot oil, flattening each fritter slightly using the tines of a fork.
  6. Fry until golden brown and crisp on both sides, then transfer to paper towels to drain excess oil.
  7. Serve the crispy potato fritters while still hot.
