Ingredients

  • 1pound russet potatoes, peeled and
  • cut lengthwise into eight planks (to fit
  • the feed tube)
  • 1scallion, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1¼ teaspoons kosher salt
  • pinch freshly ground black pepper
  • ¼cup vegetable oil

Preparation

  1. 1. Assemble the Cuisinart® Food Processor fitted with the continuous feed attachment. Place the
  2. medium shredding disc over the stem adapter.
  3. 2. Place a medium mixing bowl on the counter under the chute to catch the shredded potatoes.
  4. 3. Shred the potatoes on High. Transfer the shredded potatoes to a clean tea towel. Squeeze the
  5. towel to remove excess liquid from the potatoes and then return to the mixing bowl.
  6. 4. Replace the shredding disc with the fine slicing disc. Place the bowl with potatoes under the
  7. chute. Add the scallion to the small feed tube and process on High. Add the salt and pepper
  8. and mix together to evenly distribute ingredients.
  9. 5. Using clean hands, mix well and then divide into 4 even portions. Use your hands to form the
  10. mixture into patties.
  11. 6. Put the oil in a large, heavy skillet and place over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering and
  12. a small piece of potato sizzles immediately upon contact, carefully place each patty in the pan.
  13. Cook for about 3 minutes, undisturbed, and then carefully flip and cook for 3 more minutes.
  14. Adjust the heat as necessary so that the patties are constantly sizzling.
  15. 7. Once finished, transfer the patties to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, and then serve.
