Ingredients

  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 potatoes, peeled and cut into small cubes
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese
  • A pinch of cumin
  • A pinch of salt

Method

  1. Fry the chopped onion until cooked, then add the potatoes and stir until they are also well cooked; mash them moderately with a spoon. In a large bowl, put the eggs, cumin, and salt and whisk, then add the cooked potatoes and mix them well. Put a little oil in a pan, then add half the mixture and sprinkle the cheese over it, then cover with the remaining mixture. Leave them on low heat with the pan covered until the potato cake is cooked on the bottom.
  2. Flip the cake onto a plate so the flat side is now on top, then return the cake to the pan to cook and brown on the other side, then serve.
