Ingredients:
- 1/2 – 1 onion
- 4 potatoes
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup water
Instructions:
-
Prepare Ingredients: Begin by gathering your ingredients. Peel and grate the potatoes using a food processor, and finely chop the onion.
-
Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, chopped onion, whole wheat flour, and water. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
Form Patties: Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions. With your hands, shape each portion into a burger-sized patty, ensuring they are of uniform thickness for even cooking.
-
Cook Patties: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Optionally, you can lightly oil the pan to prevent sticking. Once hot, carefully place the potato patties onto the pan. Cook for 8-10 minutes on one side until golden brown and crispy.
-
Flip and Cook: Using a spatula, carefully flip the patties and cook for an additional 5-8 minutes on the other side, until both sides are golden brown and the patties are cooked through.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked, remove the potato burgers from the pan and transfer them to a serving plate. Serve hot with your favorite burger toppings such as lettuce, tomato, pickles, and condiments. Enjoy the delicious flavors and textures of these homemade potato burgers!
Tips:
- For extra flavor, you can add herbs and spices to the potato mixture such as garlic powder, paprika, or dried herbs like thyme and rosemary.
- To freeze leftovers, allow the cooked potato burgers to cool completely, then individually wrap them in plastic wrap or aluminum foil before placing them in a freezer-safe container. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat, simply thaw in the refrigerator overnight and then heat in a skillet until warmed through.
