Notes
- These are as delicious as the normal potato patties that use egg! I would say that I like them even more as I don't like the flavor of egg mixed in a pattie
- You can add your own toppings, I normally love to mix them with some coriander, chopped tomato or cucumber, etc
- Calories depend on the size of the potatoes and the specific flour/butter/oil you use!
