• 1 egg

• 2 tablespoons flour or cornstarch

• ½ teaspoon salt

Method

1. Grate the potatoes and squeeze out as much water as possible using a clean kitchen towel.

2. Mix potatoes, onion, egg, flour, salt, pepper, chili flakes, and coriander in a bowl.

3. Heat 2–3 tablespoons of oil in a frying pan over medium heat.

4. Add a spoonful of the mixture and flatten it into a thin pancake.

5. Fry for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
