Step 1

Peel and grate the potatoes (you can use a food processor or grate by hand, see note) then place in a bowl of cold water and set aside.

Step 2

Peel and grate the onions.

Step 3

Add both grated mixture to a fine mesh strainer lined with a cheese cloth if you have, and strain as much excess water out as possible.

Step 4

Place strained mixture into a large bowl. Mince garlic and add it to the bowl with the potato and onion.

Step 5

Add in the eggs, arrowroot flour/starch, salt and pepper. Mix well.

Step 6

Place 1/2 cup of oil into a large pan and heat the oil on medium-high heat.

Step 7

Once oil is hot, make patties out of the potato mixture (squeeze out even more excess liquid as you make patties) and pan-fry until brown on both sides. Should take about 3-4 minutes on each side but watch closely to avoid burning. Add more oil as needed.

Step 8

Serve with applesauce or sour cream and enjoy!
