To get started with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can cook potato patties using 10 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you cook it.

The ingredients needed to make Potato Patties:

1. Prepare 300 g potatoes
2. Get 3 knobs unsalted butter
3. Take 1 banana shallot, chopped
4. Take 1 clove garlic, chopped
5. Prepare 40-50 g cheese of your choice, finely grated. I use very strong cheddar
6. Prepare 50 g plain flour
7. Take 3/4 tsp salt
8. Take 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
9. Make ready 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
10. Make ready 1 egg

Instructions to make Potato Patties:

1. Boil the potatoes in salted water for 10 minutes, drain then mash them in a largish bowl with one knob of butter.
2. Meanwhile, gently fry the shallot and garlic in another knob of butter, only stirring to avoid sticking, for about 4 minutes or until softened. Stir into the potato mash.
3. Stir the grated cheese into the mash.
4. Season the flour and stir in the smoked paprika. Sift into the mash and gently mix all together.
5. Add the egg to the floured mash (easiest if you make a small hole in the centre but whatever works for you!) and, gently but thoroughly, mix it all together.
6. You should now have a clump-free, pliable mixture. Form into a bowl as if you were baking and then lift onto cling-film, forming it into a Swiss roll/sausage shape.
7. Put in the fridge (still wrapped) on a plate for 30 minutes (longer if that suits your convenience!).
8. When you’re ready, take the “roll” out of the fridge and cut into 2.5-3 cm thick patties, other shapes if you prefer but neither too thick nor too thin. Remove from the cling film!
9. Bring the final knob of butter to a medium-high heat in a frying pan and fry the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until a golden brown. Eat as they are or with your choice of condiments or accompaniments.
