Ingredients
  

  • 4 large potatoes peeled and grated
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for frying

Method
 

  1. Prepare the potatoes: Mix the grated potatoes with salt, and squeeze out the excess moisture.
  2. Cook the potatoes: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Form the grated potatoes into patties and fry each side until golden brown. Set aside.
  3. Prepare the beef mixture: In the same pan, cook the ground beef until browned. Add the onion, garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook until the onions are translucent.
  4. Assemble the cakes: On one potato patty, place a spoonful of the beef mixture, sprinkle with cheese, and top with another potato patty, sealing the edges.
  5. Fry the stuffed cakes: Fry the assembled cakes until crispy and golden on both sides.
  6. Serve: Enjoy hot for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Draining the potatoes well ensures a crispier exterior.
  • Customize the filling with different cheeses or add vegetables like spinach or mushrooms for variation.
