Boil the potatoes in their skins in salted water for 25 minutes.
Peel and mash the potatoes, then let them rest for 10 minutes to release steam.
Add flour, egg, salt, and black pepper to make a soft patty mixture.
Shape the mixture into oval patties and do not add extra flour, so the texture does not become firm.
Cook the patties in an oiled pan for 4 minutes on each side until browned, then serve with cucumber salad.
💡 Tip: Cooling the potatoes to room temperature makes it easier to shape the patties.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot or warm with a thin cucumber salad on the side.
