Ingredients

  • 1 potato (either washed or peeled)
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil

Directions

1

Grate the potato into a dish, and squeeze out the excess moisture, discarding the liquid.

2

Split the mixture into two even piles.

3

Pour the oil into a frying pan and heat moderately.

4

Place the two piles separately onto the pan, pushing down on top of them with a spatula in order to ensure that the piles stay intact.

5

Fry until the underside is golden brown, then carefully flip and cook the other side.

6

Add salt and pepper to taste, and serve.
