• 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• Oil for frying

Preparation

Preparing the Potatoes:

1. Peel and grate the potatoes using a fine grater.
2. Place the grated potatoes in a strainer, then wrap them in a paper towel or a clean cloth, and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.

Mixing the Ingredients:

2. Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.

Forming the Squares:

1. Spread the potato mixture evenly on a flat surface or a large plate, about 1/4 inch thick.
2. Cut the flattened mixture into small squares, approximately 1 inch on each side.

Frying the Squares:

1. Heat the oil in a skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
2. Fry the potato squares in batches, cooking each side for about 2-3 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy.
3. Remove the fried squares and place them on absorbent paper to drain any excess oil.

Serving:

1. Serve the warm, crispy potato squares as a side dish or snack.
