Instructions:
1. Prepare the Potato Mixture:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, chopped onion, minced garlic, flour, beaten egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
2. Form the Potato Cakes:
- Take a small portion of the potato mixture and flatten it in the palm of your hand. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center, then fold the potato mixture over the filling to encase it completely. Shape the mixture into a round patty. Repeat with the remaining mixture and filling.
3. Cook the Potato Cakes:
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the potato cakes in the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
- Cook the potato cakes for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Use a spatula to gently flip them halfway through cooking.
4. Serve and Enjoy:
- Transfer the cooked potato cakes to a serving platter. Garnish with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped chives.
- Serve hot and enjoy the delicious combination of crispy potato crust and flavorful filling.
